TO HYBRID OR NOT TO HYBRID?

How Nexa Combines Actors, Film Production and Generative AI, by Veles Productions

A team making a premium series half with a film crew and half with generative AI describes what that looks like in practice.

About ten minutes of footage on screen, then an open discussion with the room.

Aleksandra Panisko: the idea for the series, the script and directing the scenes

Dorota Zwierzchowska: production and creative production

Kate Molchanova: animation and AI art

Artur Paprocki: chief executive of Veles Productions
