Hello Creators,
It feels like everywhere you look, a new AI filmmaking competition is popping up — and that’s a very good thing.
Curious Refuge just launched an AI Horror Film Competition, giving filmmakers a chance to test their skills in one of the most experimental genres. At the same time, Kling has announced its NextGen Creative Contests, and The Dor Brothers revealed a major competition of their own.
Why this matters
Competitions like these aren’t just about prizes. They’re about:
- Community — connecting AI filmmakers from around the world
- Experimentation — testing the limits of new tools and workflows
- Visibility — giving emerging creators a platform to showcase their work
- Acceleration — pushing innovation in AI storytelling forward, fast
This is shaping up to be a landmark moment for AI film. With studios, platforms, and creators all running contests, we’re seeing the rise of a true AI filmmaking ecosystem — one where ideas can be tested, shared, and celebrated on a global scale.
If you’ve been waiting to jump in, now’s the time.
Stay curious,
