Thank you AI LA Community! See you in 2025...

Hey there!

We hope you're wrapping up the year on a high note and setting inspiring intentions for an extraordinary 2025 ahead.

Over the last eight years, AI LA has been at the forefront of hosting events that empower our community with knowledge-sharing, professional development, and unparalleled networking opportunities. As we close out 2024, we’re thrilled to reflect on our strides in advancing AI literacy, fostering innovation, and building meaningful connections across industries.

As we look ahead to 2025, we’re excited to introduce a new optional paid membership program designed to enhance the value we provide to our community. This program will include an updated pay structure for our events while offering additional benefits to our members. To celebrate this new chapter, we’re inviting our loyal subscribers to join as paid members before the end of the year to enjoy added perks and be part of this exciting evolution.

Starting at just $49/year for students and $149/year for professionals, this program is designed for those who want to deepen their involvement, unlock unique opportunities, and support our mission.

Thank you for being part of our journey!

Cinema Synthetica Documentary is Live!

In May, we supported a 48-hour AI Filmmaking Competition where nine filmmakers collaborated in three teams to create short films using generative AI tools. The three projects were showcased at AI on the Lot, and a documentary team followed their every move. Now, you can experience the behind-the-scenes in this 20-minute documentary.

See what it was like to use AI in filmmaking in May 2024!
