A Minecraft Movie director Jared Hess has made it clear that artificial intelligence (AI) played no part in enhancing the film’s adaptation of the popular sandbox game by Mojang. Despite the widespread use of AI in the entertainment industry, Hess emphasized the importance of human creativity in art, stating that AI cannot replicate the nuanced perspective and voice that human artists bring to their work.
While acknowledging the growing influence of AI in Hollywood, Hess expressed his hope that AI would be utilized as a tool rather than a shortcut, underscoring the irreplaceable value of the human experience in artistic endeavors.
AI’s integration in the entertainment sector has seen a significant surge, with its application ranging from movie production to streaming services. As Hess pointed out, the proper implementation of AI is crucial to prevent its misuse as a replacement for human innovation and craftsmanship.
Although AI did not feature in the making of A Minecraft Movie, Hess revealed that the film benefited from the use of virtual reality (VR) technology, specifically Minecraft VR and the virtual art department based in Unreal Engine. Despite experimenting with VR, Hess humorously admitted his discomfort with the technology, opting for a traditional approach to filming using an Xbox console.
As the release date for A Minecraft Movie approaches, audiences can anticipate Hess’s upcoming review to gauge whether the film lives up to expectations. In the meantime, further insights into the film’s development and other captivating articles are available for exploration.
