Narrative AI filmmaking
Brooklyn West Labs makes narrative short films and cinematic scenes with AI-assisted production. We are a Santa Barbara studio with 15 years of experience making cinematic films, and we treat AI as a production tool, not a replacement for storytelling.
Narrative work starts with a script and characters. We develop the story, design the look, generate and refine shots with AI tools, then edit, score and mix the film the traditional way.
Examples on our Studio page include a cinematic basement scene and "The walk on the bluffs."
