On October 24th, SLMBR PRTY and The NYU Production Lab will set the stage for an exploratory evening tackling the industry newcomer on everyone’s minds, AI.
The evening will consist of an artist’s panel covering cases and opinions regarding AI filmmaking tools featuring Leilanni Todd, Joy Fennell, and Danel Antebi, followed by an open community forum moderated by NYU Tandon professor and interdisciplinary artist Carla Gannis.
Founded with the mission to promote access and opportunities to the film industry for women and gender non-conforming people, SLMBR PRTY is closely aligned with The NYU Production Lab’s dedication to supporting the next generation of creatives and launching their careers. As a production company, SLMBR PRTY evolved from its initial incarnation as a filmmakers’ collective. The community-oriented ethos of SLMBR PRTY is a natural partner to The NYU Production Lab as it bolsters student and alumni artists from across the creative disciplines.
The panel is comprised of Leilanni Todd, a creative director specializing in advertising, fashion, and new media. Her AI-generated film, Everyone is Chair, screened at the 2024 Tribeca Film Festival. Joining her is Joy Fennell, an Afrofuturist, surrealist, AI strategist, and creative director. Joy fuses fashion, beauty, and technology to create immersive experiences through her studio, The Future in Black. Rounding out the panel is Daniel Antebi, whose short film Get Me Out garnered the grand prize at the second annual AI Film Festival, Art Runway, sponsored by the AI-video startup Runway. Moderating the panel is Carla Gannis, an artist whose multilayered narratives engage with our atomised and hyperreal 21st-century conditions, often using experimental methods and a diverse range of mediums and tools.
Carly Reicho, SLMBR PRTY’s Director of Film and Community Programs, says of this event, “The goal of SLMBR PRTY's community programming is to provide support, connection, and insights into the various facets of our never-not-changing industry. As we've learned more about the arrival of A.I. in the news and on social media, the need for some in-person discourse has become clear. Our hope is for attendees to leave feeling optimistic and have a greater sense of preparedness for the future.”
