An autonomous AI engine that arranges and edits film in continuous real time. Putting this computer program in the editor’s seat opens new doors to innovative ways of filmmaking.

Artificial intelligence is widely used in the production and distribution of films, with algorithms “deciding” when to release them to maximize audience size. Computers running hundreds, if not thousands, of scripts know in advance whether a film is going to be a hit or a flop. Statistically, AI can predict box office success three times more accurately than humans, and that includes highly experienced producers.

Based on never used footage shot by the Oscar nominated James Longley, depicting the life and trials of Pakistani orphans, the team trained an A.I. to edit and assemble an artistic documentary, which raises questions about what makes a film human and how we may collaborate with deep learning algorithms to expose new truths about our world. Reflector is the next step in the integration of AI into the film industry. The autonomous AI engine arranges and edits the film in continuous real time.

RNDR developed the Reflector installation to show a glimpse of the potential role of machines in documentary and arthouse film production, and to find common ground for dialogue among filmmakers about the future of film as an art form. The initial outcomes of the longer running project were presented as an interactive installation at IDFA DocLab 2019.
