    Reflections On My First Year in AI Filmmaking (Holiday Special)

    Thinking of making AI films? Or maybe you’ve already started AI filmmaking, and are simply interested in hearing what the experience is like for others… Orrrr… Maybe you’re a fan of T.M. Caufield’s AI films and want more insight into her approach to the new art form. Well, if you fit any of those categories you’ve come to the right place. In this “holiday special” podcast episode, I discuss some of my filmmaking backstory that brought me to AI film, what my first year as a student making AI videos has been like, and my experiences doing everything from adaptations of my books to biopics featuring icons like Maya Angelou, John McAfee, and Bruce Lee. Freshman year in ANYTHING isn’t easy, and the steep learning curve in AI filmmaking and the world around it makes it no different. So, if you can use some tips on how to navigate these uncharted waters, listen until the end.  There, you’ll find insights on things I did to made sure the ride wasn’t just bumpy, but fun as well. Cheers to this fantastic new art form, cheers to you, and happy holidays!   And please don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE to listen weekly, and rate and review, (or like), to show support!   To watch my AI films visit my YouTube channel or Highlights section on X: @TashaCaufield   www.tashacaufield.com/podcast YouTube: @TashaCaufield Main X: @TashaCaufield Podcast X: @xoTashaCaufield Instagram: @tashacaufieldpodcast
