Window Seat: the first A.I. feature film
Window Seat is the landmark first A.I. feature film. "When a man sees his high school bully on a plane, he is pushed into a battle of wits with him. Meanwhile, his company and personal life are thrust into the national spotlight. Will he be able to outsmart his former tormentor and expose him, or will he become a victim, once again?"
The first feature film with all video and performance generated entirely by A.I., Window Seat was released on July 21. It is an appropriately a no holds barred screenplay that would never get studio financing. It is blunt, mean, and funny. Official Trailer:
The power of film is now in the peoples hands. A.I. filmmaking is here.
Window Seat is inspired by the bitter chamber dramas of yore. David Mamet, Albee's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, Gods of Carnage, Knife in the Water. With the dark edge of recent auteurs like Aronofsky, Egoyan, and Fincher.
This is why I chose the symbolism to release Window Seat on the infamous day of Barbie and Oppenheimer. Those two films cost almost one billion dollars to make and took years of production with thousands of crew members. Window Seat cost a whopping one hundred ninety bucks and was created in three weeks, start to finish, by one man.
Due to my study in film history, I knew the limitation of A.I. filmmaking was already solved by the silent film masters a century ago.
I did not compromise on a single scene. If it was in the script, I was going to figure out how to do it. And it is a crazy script.
"People don't realize you can make a feature on A.I right now, this second. We have just entered the post-war New Wave times one thousand."
Award winning filmmaker Hooroo Jackson's second film, Window Seat, follows his cult classic Aimy in a Cage (also on gumroad), which co-starred Crispin Glover, and won Hooroo the Director's Prize in the 2015 Portland Film Festival.
