Artificial Intelligence Audiovisual Lab
Knowing, understanding, working with Artificial Intelligences.
We explore new forms of metacreation and innovative methodologies for audiovisual production.
Cort-IA, the contest for screenplays co-written with AI
SophIA with universities (Trieste, Bolzano, LUMSA), Rai Cinema and other valuable partners (AIR3 Italian Directors Association, Sineglossa, 49°) launches a contest,"Cort-IA", for short film scripts written in collaboration with Artificial Intelligences..
The goal is to create a public case study that helps develop positive models of co-creation, that valorizes authors, that inspires ethical and transparent guidelines for use.
The winning screenplay will be produced using other AI-based technologies, not only generative, to evaluate its effectiveness and potential along the audiovisual supply chain.

Federico Bo and Mateusz Miroslaw Lis have published the paper,Creating, producing and distributing audiovisual works in 2034: an AI-based scenario",a sort of synthesis and temporal projection of the work carried out to date with the SophIA Lab.
The paper, available in open access, is the response to a call from theItalian Institute for the Future (a non-profit organization for research, training, consultancy and dissemination in the field of forecasting studies) entitled"Digital Prometeo: cinema, myth and narratives of the future"" curated by Gloria Puppi and Luigi Somma.
We experiment and develop software and AI algorithms specific for the needs of pre-production, post-production and distribution.
Pre-production
- Film co-writing & analysis
- Location scouting & casting
- Concept art, moodboard & storyboard
Post-production
- Asset generation & augmentation
- AI assisted VFX (depth maps, de-aging)
Distribution
- Film/Audience matchmaking
- Film/Festival matchmaking
- Market analysis
- Audience Design
Development
AI software research and development for specific pre-production, post-production, distribution needs. Special effects, market simulations and AI analysis on demand.
Training
Learn to know. Know to use. Introductory courses on the use of Artificial Intelligence in cinema and audiovisual and advanced insights for new AI software.
Advice
Custom advice for the use of AI tools and techniques in the creation, production and distribution of an audiovisual project (films, short films, documentaries, series, video clips).
