AI Filmmakers Berlin is back. 🎬🌸
This didn’t start as a formal community. It started with a simple idea: bring together people genuinely curious about AI filmmaking.
And somehow, here we are.
On May 28, our Spring Session takes place at ProSiebenSat.1 at Potsdamer Platz.
The evening brings together selected short film screenings, filmmaker conversations, audience Q&A and, this time, also a workflow session.
The focus stays the same: authorship, taste, process and creative decision-making in AI-driven filmmaking.
This edition is developed in collaboration with Magnific (formerly Freepik), as creative technology partner and hosted with the support of ProSiebenSat.1 Media SE. Special thanks to Daniel Partzsch for supporting.
Curated by Ben Chimoy, founder of AI Filmmakers Berlin.

Almost two weeks later, Mallorca still feels special.
When Is It Yours? won Best Documentary at the AI Movie Awards 2026, I got to join a panel on AI and ethics with Vittoria Mascellaro, and Mallorca Magazin covered the festival over several pages, including a piece about my work.
The headline: “Keine Angst vor der Künstlichen Intelligenz”
“No fear of artificial intelligence.”
I like that framing.
For me, AI filmmaking is about authorship, taste, process, intention and learning how to use new tools without losing the point of view behind the work.
Happy to see When Is It Yours? and AI Filmmakers Berlin mentioned in this context.
Thank you to the @ai_movie_awards AI Movie Awards team for a warm and ambitious first edition, and congratulations to all filmmakers, participants and winners.

Last weekend at Soulscape in San Francisco.
A few intense days between keynote, 48-hour sprint, screenings, conversations, and very little sleep.
My talk was called Hacking the Algorithm with Art, but while building it, I realized it was really more about hacking reality.
For me, that means staying close to what feels human in the process, and above all, connecting your dots. That’s where a work starts to become truly yours.
I was also really happy to jump into the hackathon and see my film make it into the top 15.
Grateful for the invitation, the people I crossed paths @amykouxiaozhang@yif3ngwang@javierjq@chalesteeno@dorothypang.design@jimhuihui_ai_art@minhsmind and many more plus the feeling that this space is still being shaped in real time. Special thanks to Keith Zhang @soulscapefilm for the invitation and for bringing the whole event together. And I was especially happy to finally meet John Gaeta in person. @escapeaimedia
Next week I’ll be in San Francisco as a speaker at @soulscapefilm Soulscape 2026.
Silicon Valley meets Hollywood. I’ll be giving a keynote on AI filmmaking from the perspective of the independent creator, and on what it means to hold artistic intent within algorithmic systems.
Looking forward to the exchange in SF.
Soul over slop.

Just joined @dreamina_ai ’s Creative Partner Program, part of ByteDance.
A great moment to explore the platform more closely, especially as models like Seedance 2.0 are bringing even more attention to the space.
Thanks to the team for the invitation. Looking forward.

Happy to have “When is it yours?” featured on @shaike.ai , alongside so many strong creators in the AI film space. 🎬Thanks to the Shaike team for the welcome. Link in bio.
This isn’t a traditional documentary. I made it with AI.
New work: When is it yours?
What started as a note in my notebook moved to the screen and ended in a live conversation at my AI Filmmakers Berlin meet-up.
Where do you draw the line?

đź’«What a year.
From working on one of Germany’s first AI TV commercials, the Persil campaign for @henkel , to publishing in @kibuzzer , recording a course for The Gen AI Academy in London, and closing the @neulandpro_connect on stage.
Thankful for the growth of AI Filmmakers Berlin and for joining @escapeaimedia as a creator.
Looking ahead 🙏 2026 !
