# bok-ai-lab-media-preproduction

The first of three workshops on AI in media production, focused on pre-production. Participants will experiment with using AI for research, scheduling, and planning, as well as image generation for previs and storyboarding. Co-hosted with VPAL, this session introduces how AI can support the earliest stages of a project.

## Plan

- welcome and intros
- brainstorm pre-production tasks
    - what are they? in which contexts?
    - what have we already tried AI for?
- image gen for storyboarding
- text digestion/summarization for interview prep
- coding for scaling these operations
- next time = on set help


## Links for Interview Prep Activity

Next week we will be shooting some interviews with academics, and one way we might prepare for such interviews is by prompting ChatGPT for interview questions using some relevant context. 

Below you'll find the dissertations written by these three academics.
