AI-Generated 1920s Immigrant Film
Budget: $50,000 – $100,000 USD
I have a completed screenplay that follows a group of Mexican immigrants making their way through the American Southwest around 1920, and I want to see it come to life entirely through AI-powered video production. Rather than traditional filming or partial VFX work, the goal is to generate the whole movie with artificial-intelligence tools—characters, performances, voices, and scenery included.
Scope of work
• Turn the existing script pages into a fully rendered animated feature (or stylised live-action look, if achievable) produced end-to-end with AI.
• Generate believable characters and period-accurate costumes, animate their performances, and stage every scene in historically authentic 1920 backdrops—border towns, rail yards, desert crossings, and early-industrial cities.
• Create natural-sounding multilingual voiceovers (Spanish and English) that match each character’s personality and age, then sync them to the animation.
• Ensure the final cut flows cinematically with scene transitions, pacing, colour grading, music, and ambient sound mixed to professional standards.
Preferred toolset
If you already work with platforms such as Unreal Engine/MetaHuman, Blender with Stable Diffusion plug-ins, Runway, Pika, ElevenLabs, or similar generative pipelines, let me know. I’m open to your own stack as long as you can control style consistency and output up to 4-K resolution.
Deliverables
1. A locked 90-120 minute film master (4-K .mp4 or ProRes).
2. Separate dialogue, music, and effects stems for future localisation.
3. Project files or asset library so shots can be re-rendered if revisions are needed.
4. A brief production log explaining the main AI models and settings used, for transparency and future marketing notes.
Acceptance criteria
• Visual and vocal continuity throughout the film with no jarring model switches.
• Period details—architecture, clothing, vehicles—match 1920 reference photos.
• Lip-sync and emotional expression feel believable for every speaking line.
• Final audio mix passes standard loudness checks and is free of artefacts.
If this end-to-end AI production challenge excites you, share a short reel or sample that demonstrates similar fully generated content, outline your proposed workflow, and estimate a realistic timeline for each stage (pre-vis, asset generation, animation, compositing, sound, final mastering). I’m ready to start as soon as I find the right creative partner.
