Director Chris Hung sparked excitement at the 12th Silk Road International Film Festival in Fuzhou this week, unveiling groundbreaking applications of artificial intelligence in China's film industry. During a keynote address attended by global filmmakers and tech innovators, Hung demonstrated how AI could enhance scriptwriting, visual effects, and audience engagement while preserving artistic authenticity.
"AI isn't replacing human creativity – it's amplifying our capacity for emotional storytelling," Hung told attendees, showcasing clips from experimental projects using machine learning for character development analysis. The director emphasized opportunities for international co-production, particularly in blending Eastern narrative traditions with cutting-edge technology.
The festival, which connects filmmakers from over 40 countries and regions along the historic trade route, highlighted China's growing role in shaping global entertainment tech trends. Industry analysts noted Hung's proposals align with the Chinese mainland's $2.1 billion film market expansion plan, which prioritizes technological innovation.
