So, the first question is,
could you give us a brief summary of your presentation?
So, my presentation is about
understanding the evolution of media entertainment within technology
It's about seeing the trends and how we're moving from interactive, OSVP, towards AI,
and how that storytelling is really exciting for our future
The next one is,
could you share your thoughts on participating in this event?
So, I'm really excited to be participating here
This seems like an amazing conference that has been very well organized with wonderful speakers
So, super pleased to be invited to the first annual event
Another question is,
as you look at the present era,
was there ever a moment when you thought
this is truly a new kind of environment, or movement, or a completely new flow?
So, I get the opportunity to look at innovation throughout my career,
and I genuinely believe that we're at a point where things are changing radically
It's a new era for storytellers and makers,
and one that we should be enthusiastically moving forward towards
So, whether it's technology or art,
people often say that at the center of it all is the human being
For you, what kind of thought or feeling lies at the core of your work?
So, I think that
if you get lost about the concept of technology and filmmaking,
you have to always go back to story
Everything is about story
It's about human experience
and conveying that experience with others
So, never get confused
that technology serves story
So, next question is,
looking back, was there a decisive moment or project that shaped who you are today?
That's a good one
I think if you look at the history of what I've been doing,
the thing that really kind of radically transformed me in my career
was the innovation of the ETC R&D grant
So, we realized that it wasn't good enough to create committees
and think about things or publish just simply documents
We needed to be able to do things in context
In context of filmmaking from the very beginning to the very end
Without that,
we didn't have the genuine knowledge and experience we needed for the future
As AI and humans create together, as technology and emotion intertwine,
how do you think the content industry or the creative stage will evolve?
And within that, what role do you think humans will play?
So, as AI evolves with this forward movement of storytelling,
I think that it's going to open more content creators,
give more people the ability to tell stories
So, for example, if you look at something like Unreal,
Unreal is almost like a paint set,
where you have a lot of tools and a lot of things
Whereas traditionally with Maya, Blender, some of these things,
you could dedicate your whole life
to just learning how to make maybe one paint or use one application
And that's not how the future will move forward
Good storytellers will evolve
and be able to share their experience and knowledge
This is our last question
If you could leave one sentence for the people here today
and for the next generation of creators, what would it be?
I would have to say that if I was going to leave you one bit or one sentence,
it would have to be that
that basically technology serves story
