Byte-Sized History

A series of ten 6-10 minute mixed media short films on historical subjects, in a classic “fun facts” style. Traditionally written and fact-checked, the animated imagery and narration for these videos are produced using generative artificial intelligence prompted by a film-production professional, then traditionally edited. Following each animated sequence are expert interviews discussing the AI components shot-by-shot. The objective is to inform the audience as to how generative AI video tools can be used and their results gauged, at a time when the larger popular debate on the subject is often woefully uninformed.
