I can't wait for the day I can make photo-realistic full length movies with spoken dialogue and different camera effects entirely using an AI-generation / AI-enhanced tool. I have a feeling those days are coming soon.

This seems like a terrible future

Why?

In which I can make my own movies? I don't have the technical capability but I have the interest, why would it be terrible for me to have tools at my disposal that can take my creative interests and make them a reality? I'm not suggesting all films be made like this. I just want tools that I can use, myself to make something that I would enjoy and perhaps others might enjoy as well.

What is this exactly? Doesn't explain anything on the site.

A catalog of various (usually) camera-created visual affects. It gives names to all the weird angles, pans, and tilts that you might see in film.

A lot of them are pretty extreme and would overwhelm if over-used, but are eye catching in short amounts, such as ads, music videos, or short bits in longer format film.

Very hard to appreciate the demos when they all play at the same time.

You can click each one and it gives you a more in depth explanation of the technique used. I didn’t realise this for the first couple of minutes.

There's potential, sure, but it won't make everyone into a filmmaker just like Microsoft Word didn't make everyone into an author and Photoshop didn't make everyone an artist.
