We organised the 5th Edition of the Ouchy Film Awards with the theme of “Cinema through the lens of the AI”. The AI was integrated to the festival in the three dimensions: Firstly, we had an AI jury that has been a part of the process to select the winners. Secondly, we had 4 panels to discuss the future of film industry and the influence of AI together with the producers and artists. Finally, we had a pitching session for Largo.ai customers who presented their projects empowered by the AI results.

Here we share the links for the panels and events:
