Date TBANext Era Cinema is an independent studio built around stories that were written long before the tools existed to film them.
Every project starts as an original script. AI is the camera, the set and the effects department, but every frame is directed: composed, prompted, selected and cut by hand.
We make the films at home on our own hardware and release them for free on YouTube and social media.
An original screenplay, broken down shot by shot.
Worlds, sets and camera blocking laid out in 3D in Blender.
A key image for every shot, fixing characters and lighting.
Each frame brought to life with open-source video models in ComfyUI.
Edit, sound design, music and colour, then release.
New films and episodes land on the YouTube channel first. Subscribe to get each release as it goes live.
