Africa's First AI Feature Film Enters Production

AI filmmaking is going global. @ALC_KCL highlighted Makemation, described as Africa's first AI-generated feature film. While details on the specific tools and techniques used are limited, the project represents an important marker: AI-assisted content creation is no longer a phenomenon confined to Silicon Valley studios and Chinese tech companies. As video generation tools become more accessible and less expensive, the geographic distribution of who gets to make films — and what stories get told — shifts dramatically.
