AI-enabled tools to empower and enhance the creative process

AI - especially machine learning (ML) - is poised to significantly impact the VFX industry, transforming both creative and technical workflows. At DNEG, we are investing in the development of new AI-enabled tools and workflows to empower artists and enhance the creative process. For us, storytelling remains paramount – so our use of AI is directed towards activities that provide better feedback for artists and deeper creative control.
