In the spirit of Halloween, we’ve featured this visually captivating AI trailer from the mind of Justin Hackney. 🎃 

  • Justin Hackney, recently generated an experimental trailer for a reimagined "Alice in Wonderland" film using a suite of cutting-edge AI tools. Leveraging systems like GPT-4, Midjourney, and ElevenLabs, Hackney was able to craft striking visuals, animation, and an eerily realistic synthetic voiceover of actress Florence Pugh as Alice.

  • While not claiming commercial rights to the original IP, Hackney created this artistic project to showcase AI's potential for democratizing filmmaking and sparking thoughtful debate around related ethical issues.
