SF Ad Agency Meetup Group

​Small in-person roundtable for creators, agency leaders and creative heads working with AI video.
​AI video models are getting dramatically better.
​Generating the first clip is no longer the hardest part.
​The harder questions start when you try to turn those generations into something you would actually publish, use in a campaign or deliver to a client.
​How do you keep characters and products consistent across scenes?
​What happens when one shot needs changing but the rest of the video works?
​How many rerolls does it take before an inexpensive generation becomes an expensive production?
​How do agencies handle client revisions when every new generation can produce something different?
​And what workflows are actually working for people producing AI video regularly?
​This is a small, informal roundtable for people dealing with those questions in real creative work.
​We’ll compare what people are learning about:

• ​Character, product and visual consistency
• ​Revisions and regeneration
• ​Creative control vs. model randomness
• ​Production costs and wasted generations
• ​Story and scene continuity
• ​Client feedback and approval cycles
• ​Combining different AI video models and tools
• ​Moving from an impressive AI clip to a finished, publishable video

​Who should attend
​This will be most useful for:

• ​Creators and filmmakers already experimenting with AI video
• ​Agency founders and owners exploring AI-generated creative for clients
• ​Creative and production leaders
• ​Creative technologists and AI filmmakers
• ​Brand-side marketing, growth and creative teams producing video internally
• ​Small teams where one or two people are effectively running the whole creative-production workflow

​You don't need to be an AI-video expert.
​But this is intended for people who are actually creating, producing or seriously exploring AI video, rather than a general introduction to generative AI.
​Format
​No panels.
​No long presentations.
​No AI Video 101.

If you’ve burned through $500+ in AI-video credits, rerolled the same scene 20 times, or delivered AI video to an actual audience or client, this discussion is probably for you.
​And no hour-long product pitch disguised as an educational event.
​We'll have around 10 people around one table and use a few practical questions to get the conversation started.
​The objective is to compare workflows, failures, tools and lessons with other people figuring out the same production problems.
​Drinks & appetizers
​Your first drink and shared appetizers are complimentary.
​Additional food and drinks will be available to order individually.
