🎬 AI Filmmaking, Cannes Lions & Creative Craft — Don’t Miss This One
In this episode of Technically Creative, Orlando Wood sits down with Sebastian Strasser, one of advertising’s most celebrated commercial directors and founder of Lipstick, alongside Sascha Peuckert, Executive Producer at Team One, to explore one of the biggest questions facing the creative industries today:
Can AI produce truly world-class creative work?
For the last few years, much of the conversation around AI filmmaking and AI advertising has focused on what the technology supposedly can’t do.
Then came The RealReal.
Winner of a Silver Cannes Lion, it’s one of the first end-to-end AI commercials that genuinely feels like the work of a master filmmaker. It doesn’t just demonstrate what AI can do. It demonstrates what happens when extraordinary creative talent embraces extraordinary new tools.
Then came Gaia.
A film that’s emotional, cinematic and deeply human. It proves something many people still question: AI doesn’t remove emotion from storytelling. In the hands of great artists, it can become another way to express it.
This isn’t a conversation about prompting.
It’s a conversation about craft.
About directing.
About taste.
About authorship.
And about why the future of AI filmmaking won’t be defined by the people who learned AI first. It’ll be defined by the people who’ve spent decades mastering storytelling.
Highlights
• How The RealReal became one of the first AI commercials to win a Cannes Lion
• Why Gaia proves AI can create genuine emotional storytelling
• The difference between prompting and directing
• Why craft, taste and authorship matter more than ever
• How AI is changing commercial production
• What agencies, brands and filmmakers can learn from these groundbreaking films
If you’re a filmmaker, creative director, producer, agency leader, or simply fascinated by AI filmmaking, commercial directing, advertising production and creative technology, this episode is one of the clearest conversations yet about where creative work is heading.
