An experimental AI-driven short film exploring the fragile space between presence and absence, reality and perception.
Created at Katman Studio, In Between merges cinematic storytelling with emerging AI workflows, pushing the boundaries of visual narrative and post-production.
The film has been officially selected, nominated, and recognized across multiple international film festivals, including:
– Award Winner, Best Editing — Portugal Indie Film Festival
– Finalist — Queen City Culture Film Festival
– Finalist — Red Movie Awards
– Official Selections — Cannes Film Festival, Korea AI Cinema Festival, New York City Independent Film Festival, Mashup Cinéma AI
This project reflects a hybrid creative process where human intuition and artificial intelligence intersect — not as a replacement, but as an extension of cinematic language.
looks so much realistic

“You’re too expensive. I’ll just use AI.”
I think every designer has heard some version of this by now. 😅
Yes, AI can make something in 30 seconds or even less. But getting an image is very different from knowing what the brand ACTUALLY needs.
The tools are getting faster and more accessible. What still takes experience is knowing what works, what doesn't, what to change, and when to stop.
What do you think clients will value most from designers as AI keeps evolving?
The question is basically: what's the context behind the decision?
AI can generate 100 packaging options. It can't tell you which one makes sense for a brand expanding into a market where soft pink reads very differently than it does back home. Or why the typography from three...
