AWS Startups & FBRC.ai Present

The Culver Cup: GenAI Film Competition

The Culver Cup is choosing 50 top AI creators to push the boundaries of storytelling using cutting-edge generative AI tools. Read on if you have what it takes!

Chosen creators will build on a creative treatment from director David Slade (Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, and more) and on 3D assets from Global Objects to create a short film within 3 weeks. Creators will be given access and complimentary credits to leading GenAI tools like Luma AI's Dream Machine and Playbook3D as well as educational resources to support their technical exploration.

The submitted short films will be narrowed down to an Elite Eight. These top eight short films will be honored and shown to a live audience in a head-to-head playoff bracket format on October 14, 2024 (during LA Tech Week) at the historic Culver Theater. Winners for each bracket and the final champion will be determined by a panel of esteemed industry judges.
