Zack London’s AI-assisted feature film is set to premiere December 4

Zack London, known online as Gossip Goblin, says his feature-length film is set to premiere December 4. His team has spent the past 8–9 months making it, after building a sci-fi universe through short-form social-media videos that attracted enough interest for him to leave his day job, open a small studio and hire a team.

London says the film is not made by simply prompting an AI tool: he and a co-writer wrote the script, and the production used a dozen voice actors, musicians, Foley artists and a post-production crew. He has been making AI videos for about four years and says the tools reached an inflection point roughly a year and a half ago, making watchable work possible. He describes the process as arduous, though faster and leaner than producing a sci-fi epic of similar scope in the past.
