On this A24 Vibe Discussion, co-host Eric Kiska talks with filmmakers Blake and Blaine Childress who recently co-wrote/co-directed a short film called "Bongo The Elephant" that they're submitting to film festivals. For their short film, they responsibly used artificial intelligence to curate an idea for a character designer. Eric and the Childress Brothers discuss the future of A.I. in film, and what it will be like for filmmakers as this technology advances. Eric also talks to them about the process of making "Bongo the Elephant," and what it's like to be an indie filmmaker.
