  • The Creators Guild of America (CGA) is trying to bring more structure and advocacy to the creator industry by verifying professionals and providing career development resources.

  • While we applaud them for this important work, eg: members get accreditation for their work in a database, similar to IMDb for tracking credits. My doubts are swimming here as beloved creators like Hank Green couldn't keep similar efforts afloat.

  • Groups like SAG-AFTRA opened membership in 2021 to influencers but they don’t negotiate directly with social media platforms on behalf of members.

🎥 Creator Highlight: Thank You For Not Answering

Paul Trillo’s “Thank You For Not Answering” pioneers a new form of AI-generated cinema to poignantly explore memory and imagined possibilities. As a man leaves a sentimental voicemail, Trillo uses text and image prompts to create an abstract narrative constructed entirely by AI. The film's fragmented, dreamlike aesthetic evokes nostalgia and speculation through its innovative use of Runway's Generative Adversarial Network. With its technical originality and emotional resonance, “Thank You For Not Answering” represents Trillo’s groundbreaking achievement in AI-driven storytelling.
