The Sailor of Mount Sinai — Trailer
AI helped me produce this short film. The beauty I learned is to keep AI bound to the script written on the page. Keep the photo original, as a picture of the storyboard. It is like animating the storyboard—reflecting your thoughts as a moving storyboard that turns into a film.
Using AI to keep everything minimal and realistic is the key I hold now.
