Workshop explores AI in film with UWindsor filmmaker

A free hands-on workshop hosted by UWindsor filmmaker Yilin Zhu (MFA 2025) will give participants a chance to explore the world of AI audiovisual creation.

Is That Film Alive? takes place Friday, May 23, at 3 p.m. in the Performance Hall at the Armouries, 37 University Avenue East.

Open to all with no prior experience required, the session will introduce creative techniques that combine artificial intelligence with film production. Participants will have the opportunity to experiment and learn alongside Zhu in an interactive setting.
