AI Filmmaking (VideoGenX)

Built with Prismix Studios, a working film studio. Students write, shoot and cut a real short film using AI tools, and it is screened to an audience that did not have to come.

GRADES

6 to 10

WHERE IT RUNS

Live, in teams of 1 to 3

LEAVES WITH

A finished film, screened at the youth AI film festival

Why Prismix Studios.

They brought film production craft, from a studio that works with AI tools daily. We brought the VideoGenX bootcamp and the curriculum around it, so a school can run a real production without a film department.

The AI filmmaking curriculum behind VideoGenX

How a film actually gets made.

AI is a production tool here, not a subject. The craft questions are the same ones a studio asks: whose story is it, what does the audience know, and why is this shot on the screen.

Decide what the film is about, and who it is for.

  • Write a premise a stranger can repeat back after hearing it once.
  • Storyboard the beats, then cut the ones that repeat.
  • Use AI to draft and to argue with, not to decide.

Outcome: a script with a reason to exist.

What the programme brings with it.

  • TOOLS The AI production toolchain, with school-safe accounts and guardrails.
  • CURRICULUM The VideoGenX curriculum: story, look, cut, screening.
  • CRAFT Sessions led by people who make films for a living.
  • TEACHER Your own teacher, trained and certified, with our team on call.
  • SCREENING A place at the student film festival, with an audience.

A film, and the credit on it.

There is no examination in filmmaking that means anything. What means something is a finished film with the student’s name on it, shown to an audience, and the judgement they built getting it there.
