The Great Reset: the First Spanish Movie Made With Artificial Intelligence
The science fiction thriller directed by Daniel H. Torrado has been presented at the European Film Market (EFM) of the Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale)
"The Great Reset" marks a milestone in Spanish film production as the first movie created with artificial intelligence. Under the direction of Daniel H. Torrado, a filmmaker with over 20 years of experience and multiple international awards, the film has been presented at the European Film Market (EFM) of the Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale), sparking great interest among distributors and industry professionals.
This innovative project not only explores the limits of technology in cinema but also redefines production processes, placing Spain at the forefront of artificial intelligence use in the audiovisual industry.
An Innovative Production
Unlike traditional cinema, "The Great Reset" has been produced without on-screen actors or physical locations. All the settings and characters have been digitally caused through artificial intelligence, using advanced models of image synthesis, animation, and post-production.
This production method not only significantly reduces shooting times and costs without compromising quality but also allows for the exploration of visual narratives impossible in conventional cinema. Thanks to artificial intelligence, apocalyptic, hyper-realistic landscapes and characters with detailed interpretations have been created, replicating the emotional nuances of real actors.
However, human creativity remains the core of the project. The script, artistic direction, and narrative have been designed and supervised at all times by a creative team led by Torrado. Additionally, in key scenes, real actors have been used as references for interpretation and dubbing, ensuring an expressive and cinematically powerful result.
"Artificial intelligence doesn't replace artistic vision or human creativity. Rather, it acts as a tool that automates technical processes and optimizes production. This allows filmmakers to focus on what truly matters: telling stories that move and connect with the audience," Torrado points out.
Synopsis: An AI-Driven Apocalyptic Thriller
The film is set in the near future, where an artificial intelligence born from the mind of a renegade hacker designs an apocalyptic plan to destroy humanity to save the only person he ever loved: his daughter. Faced with chaos and the ghosts of her past, the protagonist embarks on a race against time to prevent the world's collapse.
With an intense narrative and visually striking aesthetics, "The Great Reset" combines the thrill of a thriller with the depth of science fiction, exploring the role of AI in humanity's fate.
A Milestone in the Spanish Film Industry
The project is a production of the Spanish companies Virtual World Pictures (IA Producciones) and Canary Film Factory, in collaboration with the American producer EPC Media. Its innovative approach has sparked the interest of international distributors and festivals, establishing itself as a reference in AI-caused cinema.
In addition to its presentation in Berlin, the producers plan to take "The Great Reset" to other key festivals in 2025, aiming for its world premiere before the end of the year.
A Pioneering Production System in the Industry
IA Producciones, the technological division of Virtual World Pictures and the main technical force behind the film, is a pioneer in automating audiovisual production with artificial intelligence. Its proprietary production system allows for the creation of high-quality content in less time and with a significant cost reduction, positioning itself as one of the most advanced solutions in the sector.
This innovative methodology is already capturing the attention of companies and content creators from various sectors. In this regard, IA Producciones is closing strategic agreements to provide services to other companies and apply its technology in different areas, such as film and series, advertising, music videos, and social media content.
This model democratizes audiovisual production, allowing small and medium-sized companies to access advanced tools to develop their projects more efficiently.
The techniques developed by IA Producciones open the door to new ways of storytelling and exploring innovative formats beyond traditional models. Thanks to artificial intelligence, it is possible to experiment with dynamic narrative structures, never-before-seen visual aesthetics, and formats adapted to new digital platforms, revolutionizing both cinema and audiovisual communication in general.
This technology not only optimizes classic processes but also drives a new era of production and storytelling, where creativity and innovation merge with the limitless potential of AI.
