Cinema Premiere | AI Filmmaking Hackathon
Cinema Premiere | AI Filmmaking Hackathon
On Sunday 19 April, the Give(a)Go AI Filmmaking Hackathon v2 closes at the Savoy, Dublin. ​A cinema premiere. A live award ceremony. **NOTE: To get a ticket apply to join here: [www.giveago.co/register/premiere](giveago.co/register/premiere)** One night to see what happened when 100 of Ireland's best creatives + builders spent 24 hours making films. ​Semi-formal or formal attire is encouraged. And bring a prop from your favourite film, something small, something yours. ​The day before, creatives and engineers whose credits span Netflix, Prime Video, and beyond gathered at Dogpatch Labs with a single brief: write, generate, shoot, score, and finish a complete short film in 24 hours. No placeholders. No demos. Real films, made with frontier AI tools, shaped by people who care about what ends up on screen. ​Now you get to see what they made. Grab some popcorn. ​Every film screens on the big screen.
