Every participant receives a complete short film script. You will deconstruct it as a film crew—determining the necessary characters, locations, and shots—and create them using AI. This course teaches you how to translate script text into visual frames while maintaining a consistent film style. Course Outcome Visual development of a film based on a given script, including characters, locations, and a 12–20 frame storyboard.

Analyzing a given scenario: scenes, characters, and locations. Lecture + Workshop.2 Neural Networks and Prompting
Which service for what, how to write a prompt, and who owns the output. Lecture + Workshop.3 Film Style
References, color palette, mood board, and directorial exposition. Workshop.4 Shot Composition
Shot size, angle, lens, and light—the language of the cinematographer. Lecture + Workshop.5 Characters and Locations
How to maintain a consistent character and setting across all shots. Workshop.6 Storyboarding
A key frame for each scene, assembly, and defense. Workshop.
