So… we made a sci-fi film.
Twenty people.
A week and a half.
And it opened the First @invideo.io India AI Film Festival at Qutub Minar…Surreal.
This one is part of one of those larger ideas that’s been living in my head, collecting dust in old notebooks.
Hunger is the first piece of a much larger world “Vedic Odysseys of the Future”.
Every episode a different story, a different Vimana, different characters, with a few threads weaving through all of it. An Indo-futuristic anthology that I genuinely thought would never come to life.
And then AI happened and suddenly all the stuff that was too expensive, too ambitious, too much for someone like me just… wasn’t anymore.
So we made it. And that’s the part that still blows my mind.
So if you’ve got something you wrote at 2am that you never showed anyone, just make it. Seriously. The canvas is yours now.
Made on @invideo.io and part of invideo Originals — a new home for stories that always deserved to be told but never saw the light.

The magic moments are when Agent One does the step you didn’t ask for.
→ Lock one element of your world and the agent extracts every angle on its own. Wide, close, side. All ready before you ask.
→ Spot an error in a shot you really like? It traces the source in your character sheet, fixes it there, leaves the rest of the film intact.
Surgical edits. Not slot-machine re-rolls.
Comment “Agent” for the full breakdown.
There’s always that one shot some video models just can’t crack. No matter how you prompt it.
Instead of prompting harder, we asked Agent One for ideas.
It came back with a workflow pivot that unlocked the entire production.
We didn’t prompt our way to the answer. We had a creative conversation and the agent solved it.
Comment “Agent” for the full breakdown.
We ran multiple agents in Agent One like a film crew would.
Creative producer on the world-building. Casting agent on the characters. Director’s assistant on the shot breakdown and edit. Then DOP, 2nd DOP, 3rd DOP, 3rd AD as production scaled.
Eight agents working in parallel across separate pages of the same project.
This is EXACTLY what manual prompting cannot do.
Comment “Agent” for the full breakdown.
Most people throw one reference image at AI and pray.
We fed Agent One batches of it instead. Spatial logic, dome-as-screen, and color theory.
Each batch with clear instructions. What to use and what to ignore.
Then grids, not single shots. Kept the panels we wanted and those became the film’s anchors.
Reply ‘AGENT’ for the full breakdown.
Stop prompting, start directing.
This entire promo was directed on invideo Agent One. No prompts. Just creative decisions.
Comment 'AGENT' and we'll send you the full breakdown.

At the Good Ads Matter AI in Advertising Roundtable, Hridaye Nagpal @hridayean , Filmmaker & Creative Strategy Lead at Invideo @invideo.io , shared his perspective on AI as someone working closely with AI creation platforms.
Reflecting on his experience directing ads and observing them over the years, he notes how advertising has steadily become safer. While he was initially skeptical about AI, he now believes it could unlock new creative possibilities by removing budget barriers and encouraging creators to think bigger and push boundaries once again.
Hridaye Nagpal is one of India’s early filmmakers to explore AI-led visuals who co-founded GoBo Labs, an AI creative studio that works with brands to create AI-led storytelling, which was later acquired by InVideo.
