Getting Started

WGGB was involved with + support's @tuc.org.uk's new AI manifesto, published today, which calls for action to protect workers in the creative industries amid huge changes in AI Read more in the Guardian, incl a quote from our Chair @emmajanereeves.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

In my opinion Flow is the biggest winner of #oscars. This tiny production made with free #blender won with the best names of the #animation industry. It’s a legendary achievement! I hope that it will give more courage to animators out there and open up more funding opportunities. #indieanimation

According to the public announcements, several Oscar nominated films this year have used AI. There’s still no guidance on how to approach intellectual property in that kind of cases. Is it possible that those films will disappear soon as they won’t be able to clear rights? #AI #Oscars #filmsky

The CRA are standing with all creators and performers, sending a clear message to UK Government; Make it Fair - stop siding with big tech and ensure that creators are fairly rewarded when their work is used to train AI. #makeitfair #PaytheCreator. Read more: www.creatorsrightsalliance.org

A friendly Monday reminder to all struggling screenwriters! Harvard Business School 2019 study found that the Black List films did better at cinemas than their same budget counterparts generating 90% more revenue at the box office. Rejection doesn’t define you or your project! #scriptsky

We Live In Time didn't impress me with the idea or scenes from the characters' life they chose to make the concept work. But the flat surface egg trick is first-class! You never know where you can find a new cooking hack :) #filmuksky #filmsky #eggs #irony #weliveintime @a24movies.bsky.social

Both directors and producers have been struggling to earn any money. Film financing requires urgent changes; otherwise, we won’t see any new indie films soon. I’m not convinced Sing Sing is a sustainable model, but it could inspire alternative approaches. #filmsky open.spotify.com/episode/0j5v...

That marks the end to an important era in the entertainment… www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... #jamesbond #film #filmuk #barbarabroccoli

Showing that women of different ages have sexuality in films like Babygirl or even the new Bridget Jones is great. But, the Thelma and Louise rewatch made me realise that since 1991, the validation of women's experiences hasn’t received much more representation. Are we missing the point? #film
