Build Your Own AI Tool in 90 Minutes

Work with Mads Damsbo, Head of Bacon Lab, in a hands-on workshop to build a functioning AI prototype based on your own work challenge. The session requires no coding knowledge – only familiarity with your field and a concrete problem you wish to automate.

Mads draws on participants' real-world productions and demonstrates how AI-assisted programming opens possibilities for filmmakers to develop their own tools. Three concrete examples from Bacon Lab are covered: Cinetune (a prompt guide for image generation), Machine Vision Remix (a computer vision tool), and the Greybox tool (for previz without 3D experience).

Preparation Required

• Bring a laptop (Mac macOS 13+ or Windows 10/11)
• Download and log in to Claude app before the session – requires a paid subscription (Pro or higher)
• Prepare 5-10 sample files related to your problem
• Describe step-by-step how you currently solve your task
• Bring only materials where you hold the rights – materials will be displayed on screen

If you wish to prepare your problem in advance, send it to [email protected] with a description of the task, frequency, workflow, file types, and success criteria.
