Artificial Intelligence's innovative future to be spearheaded by David S. Goyer, known for the Dark Knight trilogy, at the forefront.
Artificial Intelligence Transforming Storytelling: A Panel Discussion at SIGGRAPH 2025
David S. Goyer, the visionary writer behind The Dark Knight and the creator of Apple TV+'s Foundation, will lead a thought-provoking panel discussion at SIGGRAPH 2025. The focus of this discussion is on the influence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in storytelling across film, TV, and games.
Titled "AI and the Future of Storytelling," the panel will delve into how AI is becoming an integral part of the creative process, empowering artists to create more, faster, and with greater freedom, without replacing them. Goyer will share insights on how technology has impacted his work and the future of creators.
Joining Goyer in this discussion will be Tye Sheridan and Nikola Todorovic, co-founders of Wonder Dynamics, now part of Autodesk. They will share their expertise on Autodesk Flow Studio, a cloud-based AI platform that automates complex Visual Effects (VFX) work. The session will be moderated by Carolyn Giardina, an award-winning journalist and author.
Autodesk Flow Studio aims to democratize digital filmmaking by bridging the gap between imagination and execution for creators at every level. The panel will also feature Autodesk leaders demonstrating creator-first AI tools like MotionMaker in Maya and Autodesk Flow Studio, providing a broader context of AI reshaping creative workflows at SIGGRAPH 2025.
The panel is not only relevant to VFX veterans but also to indie filmmakers using software like Blender. The discussion will revolve around how AI can reduce friction in storytelling, open access to a broader community of artists, and keep human creativity at the centre of production.
The panel discussion will take place live globally on Autodesk's YouTube channel or in person at SIGGRAPH 2025 in Vancouver on 12 August at 2 pm PST / 5 pm EST. This keynote is expected to set the tone for the film industry for years to come, shedding light on the transformative power of AI in storytelling.
Autodesk has recently announced AI tools to help artists, and this panel discussion promises to be a significant step in understanding how these tools can revolutionize the creative process in the film industry. Don't miss out on this exciting event!
