Traditional cinema meets AI-powered filmmaking at SHAIKE Film Festival 2026.
At SHAIKE Film Festival 2026 in La Ciotat, we brought together established cinema professionals and AI-powered filmmakers to share perspectives, exchange ideas, and discuss the evolution of filmmaking.
For the first episode of SHAIKE Festival Talks, we’re returning to a fundamental question: In a world where AI is transforming filmmaking, what makes a story worth telling?
It’s Always Been About Storytelling features Olivier Dahan, Jacques Malaterre, Toby Hyder, Mark Wachholz, and Marcin Rossa, moderated by Matt Szymanowski.
Beyond the AI ecosystem, SHAIKE creates a space where traditional filmmakers and emerging AI creators can engage in the same conversation. Different backgrounds, different approaches, but a shared passion for cinema.
Because the future of filmmaking isn’t about choosing between traditional cinema and AI. It’s about bringing both worlds together.
