What this room is for

A clear place to show up.

The creative AI filmmaking home for screenings, workflow demos, works in progress, and the road to the BC + AI Film Festival.

  • Screenings, workflow demos, technical breakdowns, feedback sessions, and tool experiments.
  • A bridge between indie makers and established film, animation, VFX, XR, music, and media production people.
  • A year-round community that turns AI film from spectacle into practice.

Upcoming

Next highlighted event: AI Film Club 06/11 at Multimodal Media Lab, with registration at luma.com/films.

Come to a screening, bring a work in progress, request the WhatsApp group at an event, or follow the festival track.

What happens here

The public shape of the room.

  • People screen work, test cuts, examples, and experiments in front of other makers.
  • Technical demos and workflow breakdowns make the tools less mysterious and more accountable.
  • The monthly room feeds collaborations, workshops, and the road to the BC + AI Film Festival.

AI Film Club 06/11

Monthly public screening and technical deep-dive at Multimodal Media Lab.

Public context

Open the threads without exposing the private room.

Community practice

The room mixes screenings, works in progress, technical breakdowns, demos, feedback, and honest conversation about what AI is doing to production and storytelling.

Creative principles

Human creativity first, transparency about AI use, collaboration over competition, accessible tools, and a bias toward making work rather than watching the industry change from the sidelines.

Privacy boundary

The page points people to public events and public launch copy. Private WhatsApp discussions, unreleased projects, and attendee-specific feedback stay private.

Story so far

How this community became one of the pillars.

AI Film Club started as a wild question: what happens when filmmakers, science fiction, and AI tools get into the same room?

The answer became a monthly creative lab at the Multimodal Media Lab, a growing WhatsApp community, and a festival pathway for new work.

The philosophy stays human creativity first. AI is a tool, not a replacement. The room is built for collaboration, transparency, access, and community over competition.

Join

Come to a screening, bring a work in progress, request the WhatsApp group at an event, or follow the festival track.

BC + AI keeps the doors open through events, membership, and organizer-led channels. Start with the public event link, then join the appropriate group channel in person.
