This July marks 125 years since the birth of one of the greatest American writers, Ernest Hemingway. So we decided to make a first-ever AI film based on a classic Nobel-prize-winning novel "The Old Man & The Sea" - narrated by the author himself.

2,200 images created in Midjourney, over 400 videos generated, over 50,000 character-credits used in Eleven Labs studio for sound effects and narration.

The film applies the latest tech from content-production tools to reimagine one of Hemingway's greatest novels - The Old Man & The Sea - entirely with AI. The cherry on top - the film is narrated by "Papa" himself (we synthesized Ernest Hemingway's voice from original archive recordings). Extensive 10-minute AI film premiers on July 19th!
