September 2023 - Community & MVP Programme, Generating Videos with AI


Details
This month is our ninth birthday, we cannot believe that we are still here, to be honest!
So, we have something a little special with Claire Smyth from Microsoft joining us to talk about the community. Claire is fantastic and core to the Microsoft community, particularly as runs the Microsoft Most Valued Professional (MVP) programme in the UK. She is going to talk about the Microsoft Most Valued Professional programme and discuss how it works.
Following on from that our very own Simon Hudson is going to talk to us about the very scary but real Artificial Intelligence generated Video!
Video content, the AI way.
Many people engage with video more effectively than with written documents and web pages.
The trouble is that video production is a specialised skill set, time-consuming and costly.
This session will demonstrate how to use a best-of-breed set of AI tools to automate almost all the elements, from script, through actor design, to animated avatar and output.
It will close with potential use cases and future development.
