Totally does! I think it's a pretty fantastic way of quickly seeing if an idea has legs too. Like, occasionally, I'll have a cool idea, but as soon as you start writing it, you realize...oh, this makes no sense. I do like the GenAi aspect as well...like the Bruce Lee Terminator thing, it actually MIGHT have an idea you didn't see coming!

@@TheoreticallyMedia yeah, it could almost be used as a collaborator. You might have an idea, but let's see what the GenAI thinks instead. Or it's great just to fill in a blank.

I’ve actually been thinking about doing the same with some old scripts that never really came together! Just to see what might have been!

It seems to be a great way to learn how to structure a screenplay. I see a lot of that in early scriptwriters, they’ve got a killer 1st act, and know how it ends- but that second act is usually a mess.

One of the things I really like about PlotDot is that it really makes you think about the structure. From my early days of scriptwriting, I know that a lot of time that moment of inspiration is more like a "trailer" for a story you'd like to write. But if you try to work with JUST that, you'll quickly find there really isn't enough meat on those bones to fill 120 pages!

Sorry you don't have the talent to do it yourself. Maybe that's a hint.

@@TheoreticallyMedia Yes, you can think of PlotDot as an AI-Driven Screenwriting Framework.

Is this what script writers in Hollywood are using right now?

For real! I have not had much luck with CGPT for longer form. It can do sequences or small scenes before freaking out, but if I want to do something longer, its just easier to do it myself-- rather than re-train GPT for every scene. This-- this is super smart! Man, I can't wait to see the T2 movie....Someone please sneak Bruce in as a background character!

@@TheoreticallyMedia dude I was thinking the same thing regarding BLT lol it's fun calling him that. Did Sway and Nem peep it yet, the Brucinator thing I mean? Would be an awesome eater egg lol

Haha, I didn't even realize that had a rhyme meter going! That's really funny!

So, there’s probably a MUCH smarter way to do this, but basically: I record the screen with OBS. Mic audio goes in to OBS. I also record video with my DSLR and just a regular mic. Take both videos into Premiere and sync the audio. My DSLR footage on top of my OBS screen footage. When I need that Picture in Picture look, I just create a circle mask around my DSLR footage and manually pop it in a corner. I was thinking about picking up a streamdeck, or figuring out how to automate it in OBS, but to be honest, I like the control of doing it in post. If I did it “live” it would be baked in. So, having the options- while more time consuming, is worth it to me. And yeah, I do my own editing. A little sloppy sometimes, but I’m usually moving fast. I’d love to have an editor, but the only way I think I could do it (given the speed) is to have someone here. The dream is that the channel is eventually profitable enough to be able to pay someone to do that!

Haha, I honestly think GPT could be better than Sharknado. I once asked it for a zombie movie from the point of a dog and it came up with “Paws of the Dead” …I would legit watch that movie.

@@TheoreticallyMedia As long as it has Simon Pegg in it... I'm in!! 😂

If Sharknado is your reference of an average movie made, then yeah sure. Watch a movie like ‘ Her ‘ to realize a great movie is never made in 10 min. From Average to below average to accepting a C is good enough. Great photograph, you must have a really great camera. 😂

@@MultiMam12345 Yes, Mam. Whatever you say, Mam.

@@MultiMam12345 Wellll, don't get me wrong-- Sharknado ONE is pretty great in that great/terrible kind of way. I do totally agree that films like Her, or really any other Spike Jonze movie, won't ever be produced to a quality level by AI. (Actually, if you want to check out a kinda amusing video I did early in the channel, I took The Three, the fictional screenplay in Adaptation and tried to write it in ChatGPT 3...It fails pretty hilariously: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l9Gil8132qy1iWw.html ) But, I think the LLMs are catching up to the point where they could probably make a Mission Impossible rip off movie.

Excellent to hear!

Might be a silly question, but did you scroll all the way to the right? That was one part that wasn’t intuitive to me. I couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t get to the next section, and it turns out there were a few more sequences hanging out on the far right of the screen I didn’t notice!

I was really close to canning my GPT sub when they announced Dalle3, mostly because I’ve been having so much fun with Claude! I even love the interface, it just feels so much more inviting with the way the text rolls onto the screen. I know that’s a pure aesthetic thing, and fairly shallow, but it goes a long way!

I gotta say, more and more, I like Claude. I don't know if I mentioned it here, but I was one step away from cancelling ChatGPT...and then they released Dall-E 3 in it....haha, they get my money for another month at least!

Claude is good at creative writing. I created 2 short film scripts with it. Claude 3 Sonnet to be exact

No problem! It was a lot of fun to make this one!

Konbanwa! Have fun with it!

Oh, thanks so much! Haha, and good work picking up on one of my verbal tics. To be Honest and To Be Fair...it's an unconscious thing-- but when you've done 100 videos, at some point you realize you're saying those things all the time. So, you spend 20 videos trying not to...and eventually just hit to point where you're like: Eh...To be honest, I have to not care anymore!

Oh, ha-- that's awesome. So, that's actually a track from an ambient album I made. I'm not sure if links work in YT comments, but if you search Citizentim Xangri-la, it should come up on all the streaming services. That track was Forest of The Nine. Speaking of which, I should probably upload all those recent tracks I haven't gotten around to doing!

Ah, that's a bummer-- but bound to happen at some point, as obviously it is a product. I gotta admit, "ink" is a pretty clever credit name.

Totally Agree! It's funny, I've been leaning on Claude more lately as well. I was on the verge of cancelling my ChatGPT sub when they announced Dall-E 3 in it, so they've got my money for a few more months at least! I love the idea of using Plotdot for a short-- and honestly, when you look through the character data it asks you for, I think it forces you to answer a lot of those historical and biographical details about your characters. In a lot of ways, if you're just using it as a structural/assistant tool and not doing ANY AI generation-- you're going to walk away with a really dimensional character. I think the AI can churn out Mission Impossible rip offs all day long, but so could any seasoned screenwriter (I did just catch the last one...Man, soooo flat)-- but I'd be curious to see if you brought in details and characters from an indie film how it would do. I don't think it would handle writing a David Lynch movie very well...But that's OK by me.

Yup! Think of how many great stories are just missing that little element that maybe the creator struggles with. AI is a great way to fill in those gaps and help us see these creator's visions finally come to life! Or feeding it all of the Game of Thrones universe content and having it finish the show and eventually books ;)

@@mc9723 haha, oh man, I don’t think AI could even fix the mess George has made on the book side of things! That said, I also think AI is the only way we’ll actually see those books completed! (Side note: I’m not a huge fan of Brandon Sanderson, but given the rate at which he cranks out books, I am now convinced he is an AI that travelled back in time.)

I love Claude! The answers are just clear and simple. To the point.

Unsure? When I used it, it was just there.

Hey, thanks so much!! So, I don’t think Plotdot would do well for a YT script, unless you were looking to do a short film. To be honest, I haven’t really found a great tool for YT content, like that Casey Neistat video, they always come off as very stiff. I do think Claude and GPT could make for good starter scripts, or idea iteration, but whole cloth, I don’t see it yet,

yea fair. @@TheoreticallyMedia

yea fair. @@TheoreticallyMedia

Yeah, I still need to generate and print a full script to see how coherent it is, but it does lead me to wonder if we’ll see something like it in Final Draft. At one point people scoffed at AI in Photoshop, and now we have Gen Fill…

@@TheoreticallyMediafunny thing, we had several calls with FD executives 😅

@@redakhyatti7413 THAT is hilarious! It makes sense though, I mean FD is pretty much the "photoshop" of the screenwriting world.

Haha. It really does! And our main characters totally would have gotten away with it, if not for those pesky kids!!

@@TheoreticallyMedia

Thank you!!

Oh, 100%. This is great for commercial stories, and although I think there are storytelling principles that are universal, this wouldn’t be my go-to if I wanted to do a indie/biographical type film. This is going to be a weird example, but take Kevin Smith’s Clerks. That’s something you couldn’t (or really shouldn’t) try to make with Plotdot.

Could not agree more. And I’m glad as a working pro, you see the value in this. While I don’t think that Plotdot would be great in a TV writers room, I feel like for film writers it can serve as a really great bounce board for seeing if an idea has legs. To be honest, one of the best uses of GenAI for me is to have it create something I DON’T like, which sparks the idea of what I DO like. And yeah, 100% on the WGA front. I was always pro WGA in that fight. To be honest, I don’t think the AMPTP ever had a good idea of what AI was capable of to begin with. They might be kicking themselves after learning about this!

⁠@@TheoreticallyMediaInteresting process for generating good ideas. Similar to watching a bad movie’s setup and realizing the direction it should have gone, then writing your own entirely new spin on things. I’ve definitely done that before to great effect. As for the AMPTP, I have a more cynical take. I think they’re currently developing their own models with existing scripts they own. AI can’t get credits but producers can save a ton of money by generating their own solid first drafts with AI and then hiring one named writer to rewrite sections that aren’t quite firing on all cylinders. They know that no one will watch movies written exclusively by AI (at least for the foreseeable future), so having a human name credited will actually serve them well. Fewer and fewer spec scripts will be purchased, and fewer rewrites will be needed/sought, saving them a fortune.

@@trevorama Y'know, I don't doubt your theory at all. We're likely to see a lot of Producers with "Story By" credit soon. They didn't actually write the story, but how are you going to prove that? On the plus side: There are so many advancements with AI and Camera Tech, I hope to see the Independent Film scene really take off soon.

It's great to learn some basics! Honestly, it'll change the way you watch movies!

Not gonna lie, a little sus that this releases a few days after the ink dries. To be honest, I think it was smart to wait. Feels like this would have caused a pretty major firestorm if it was released at the height of the strike.

Haha, that’s true for me as well! I guess we can’t judge AI too harshly!

Funny thing, plotdot started with the novels in it’s early versions. There are plans to bring that feature at some point!

Oh man, I would love to dig into a Plotdot Novel platform! I’m going to need more printer ink for sure…

@@TheoreticallyMedia I’ll check with the team how fast we can bring that up. But for now, we’re trying to fix plot hole issues to make the generated content more coherent. We’ve been doing some research, and we believe we might have a path to solve it.

It's called Sudowrite!

Ive seen it. Does it do full plot outlines ideas? I only checked quickly.@@Somosoterocheney

Man, humor is so subjective. I’ll agree that GPT and Claude can be stiff, or just go with the obvious joke- but every once in awhile they’ll zing me pretty good. Case in point: did you see the AI generated South Park? That was written by ChatGPT, and while most of it was flat, there were a handful of zingers in there. To answer, I’d say: give it a shot, but expect to need to punch it up.

I'll give it a try!@@TheoreticallyMedia

I believe they have a version that does this. I'll be digging in deeper shortly!

But at this point, did you really write the novel?

@@theusopppirates2865 Not that it matters, but absolutely. The real treasure of this is the ability to use it to create a first draft. Writing a good story is like forging a good sword. Greatness is born in refinement. There's this bad and dangerous belief that magic. As if a story written by a computer, and that same story with the same words written by a human are somehow magically different. They are not, and both are of equal value.

@@alananimus9145 it does matter, though. What do you think will happen when it’s good enough to replace most human writers? The human experience is what makes the integrity of man-made art. AI content robs the art of its soul, and once it dominates literally every aspect of entertainment and culture, well, to me it just feels pointless. Not trying to be a Luddite here, but we’re on an incredibly slippery slope. But I realize there’s no closing Pandora’s box.

​@@theusopppirates2865 Let's dispense with the "art of its soul" nonsense. The only "soul" any art has is imposed on it by the consumer of the art. I don't care if it "feels pointless" to you. That is your own doomerist emotions you are projecting onto it. Speaking about the "Integrity of man-made art" is also nonsense. It's a meaningless phrase intended to appeal to an emotional argument. Art as no integrity except the integrity which the consumer brings to it. If anything I see AI art as a boon to humanity as it will wash away the lazy trash. As someone who does write I understand that writing requires crafting ones skill which means lots of practice and gradual improvement. However, with that said there are too many "authors" who don't know, and worse don't care to know how story works and what makes story good. AI is a tool to be used and it can help craft some amazing stories. But honestly even the bad AI novels with no editing is better than 80% of novels that get published. Lazy writers are still going to pump out dreck and not care. Here's the thing. If you didn't know that the author was an AI and it was a great story, it would still be a great story when you found out the author was an AI. Yes I do honestly have concerns when it comes to AI. But this is mostly because the people who are creating AI are ethically stupid. What scares me even more however is the moral panic against AI. The moral panic has the ability to do far more damage. Yes, we need to insist that AI be created ethically. We need to insist that AI not generate misinformation (ChatGPT will unironically imply that Noah's flood, and the exodus were actual events in history even though we know for a fact neither happened). No we do not need to be concerned about AI art.

In general, I've just been finding Claude more pleasant to work with. I don't know what exactly it is-- but Claude is just...nicer? I was really close to canning my ChatGPT sub, but then they announced Dall-E 3, so now I'm committed until I can get that final review off. Despite the fact I'm not overly impressed!

Yes, I definitely agree that Claude is much nicer to work with. Stylistically and everything and Claude does seem like it has a nicer compared to all of the other chatbots lol. I didn't feel as limited with Claude. I submitted a whole 68 page book to Claude vs. Chatgpt which only accepted 3000 characters and Claude summarized ALL 68 pages and was just as effective as Chatgpt. Claude said that it's more specialized in things like writing and summarizing stuff and such is a plus too.

@@HE360 it’s such a stupid thing, but I also love the way text flows onscreen with Claude. It’s such a silly aesthetic issue, but it just…feels nice.

​@@TheoreticallyMediaIndeed!

No prob, champ! Now, two more laps!!

Not really. You’d basically have to “retell” the story to Plotdot, and even then, it would come out as an adaptation. Which, to be fair: you’d have to do anyhow. Rarely (for obvious reasons) is a novel to screen adaptation a 1:1 Give it a shot though! It’s fun nonetheless!

Yeah, I'd say for sure to try out the Claude model in Plotdot! I have been finding (for me) that Claude seems to be more creative.

Oh boy, do I have a video for you: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aJ-flJaKr5a-pok.html You don't have to do the stem seperation part-- literally the music generation part is pretty insane.

Oh that's interesting and I've always wanted to see hat can be done here. Maybe I'll find some time to work on a prototype.

Yeah. It’s all got a bit of a ways to go. I need to look at another one that is promising something similar- but overall, I think traditional screenwriters are currently safe from fully AI written content. Which is fine, and something I’ve always maintained is the best route. It’ll get there eventually, but I still think using LLMs as a writing partner is really the best use case.

Thank you so much!!

@@TheoreticallyMedia you're welcome, friend. Thank YOU.

I was having some issues when doing the demo as well, but it would work if I came back to the session or refreshed. Might be one of those “work in progress”

This was made pretty early in, so the doors were wide open. I'm not sure if they've switched over to a paid model yet.

I have! I mean….it’s been ages though. Back when it first came on HBO? So…yeah. Awhile.

Yeah, a common phrase I like is: "This is the worst it will ever be." It only gets better from here. Although, I always like to advocate for a human element to these generators. I'm sure my thinking will be outdated at some point, but I like to think of we meat puppets as the creative directors for these generators. ...and to be honest, I kind of love Terminator: Echo of the Dragon.

I don’t think so. But you might be able to “hack” it, by having your sequences be episodes, and your acts be seasons.

Haha, I used to call it the Diarrhea Draft. Why are writers so gross?

So that’s what I’m doing. Good to know.😂

Sweet!

Oh, are you on the Plotdot team? That awesome! I really do think this is a great platform. If there’s one thing you might want to consider it is renaming the sliders in the LLM section.

Yeah, they take that lock button super seriously! I suspect it has something to do with how your entries are catalogued into the database to communicate with the LLM. Also, I can tell because the thumbnail is super small, but is your icon Snake Plissken?

Be that as it may, it is completely unreasonable to expect people to restart the entire process to change a single detail. Also, my avatar is of a character in my favorite movie: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hZlkbNqBtriqoX0.htmlsi=RrqfxUCvtg9yFbR3 @@TheoreticallyMedia

Yup, and that’s really kind of what this is. It’s one of those analog plot systems, with the add of an LLM. To be honest, as a plotting system, I don’t mind it. I think it really is a helpful tool to get writers thinking about ideas they might have missed, or helping them over structural stumbles they might not realize they’ve baked into their scripts. I do maintain that if your want a really good script, you’ll still need a human guiding the process and then ultimately re-writing the final output. But, as a first draft? I think this could be a real time saver.

Haha. Hopefully soon? I have to go through and lock each page. I was planning on having it for the video, but kinda ran out of time. Hoping to get to it this week and I’ll pop it on a Dropbox link for everyone

@@TheoreticallyMedia Thanks. That would be fun to read.

It really is a great way of seeing if an idea has legs.

If you’re more confused than ever, than you truly are a writer! And I don’t mean that as a slag! I think a good writer looks at everything, gets confused, and then processes it into a story. And totally fine if you’d rather go the traditional route. If that’s what works for you. To be honest, I’ve spent the last few days trying out a bunch of management software: Notion, Trello, Taskade…after a bunch of lost time, I’m back to working in my notebook. So, I get it.

Haha-- See, I didn't hate Rings of Power as much as everyone else did...well, until like halfway through. Then I got bored. That was my biggest problem with it...how do you make a Boring Middle Earth Show? Ugh...I did grind all the way through, so hopefully Season 2 will learn from its mistakes.

Sounds like we have a sequel!!! I mean, you know that prediction where in the future it’ll be you starring in whatever movie you’re watching? I think it my house it’ll just be Bruce Lee starring in everything.

Was that a prediction... or the plot for "Total Recall"? @@TheoreticallyMedia

Now i can't even click the buttons anymore.

Hmmm-- clear your cache maybe? Or try a different browser? Seems to be working on my end. That's odd.

See, but that's what I like about this one-- it doesn't so much automate (ok, it does in the end) but rather is prompts you with a bunch of questions for your scene. You CAN automate that part-- sure, but I'm hoping people do the manual input. ...but yeah, most won't...

@@TheoreticallyMedia Everyone concerned with artificial "intelligence," I'm more concerned with finding the real thing!!!

@@Shotzeethegamer haha, not on this planet!

That sounds like a Sequel Title!!

So, from what I've seen so far, it is just your voice that it records. It will record other voices if they give it permission, but will only record to your device. It looks like storage of those recording is on your iphone and then sync'd to a mac-- unless you choose to have it uploaded to a cloud server. In which case, I guess Rewind would technically have all those conversations stored somewhere-- but I doubt anyone is going to analyze that data to see who is talking to who. Honestly, if you have an Amazon Alexia in your house, that is doing FAR more recording and analyzing than this probably is!

I….do not know? That’s a good question. Maybe not on initial output? But you can always rewrite some well placed F-bombs in if you’d like.

This needs to be a tee shirt!

@@TheoreticallyMedia EXACTLY! LOL

YESSSS to Tim is Awful!!! To be honest, that would be a really boring show. Just Brad Pitt sitting in this studio typing this comment and scripting stuff all day long. Haha. On the PlotDot part-- I don't think so. I've always said, ideas are cheap-- the execution is where its at. And weirdly, they've got the execution part down!

@@TheoreticallyMedia I see...

It’s a pretty great use case for AI, right? A little AI, but there is still human control! Love that!

It’s a tricky line though. Like, AI is already used in that whole “de-aging” effect that’s basically used in every movie these days (ugh, Indiana Jones). And although we obviously tell, should that be disclosed somewhere, even though it was used as a production tool? I don’t mind your idea at all, I just think it’ll be as effective as a Creative Commons license. Which is to say: the larger viewing public just doesn’t care one way or the other. They just want to be entertained.

To be fair, I don't think it's the writers at fault there-- more the studios looks to turn money into more money.

Thank you so much! And to you, the winner of the Chicken Dinner!

Y'know there actually was a movie called Escape from Tomorrow that was secretly shot at DisneyWorld. Like, basically guerrilla style. It made it to Sundance, and Disney did try to shut it down, they basically got away with it under the fair use clause. That said, apparently the movie isn't very good. One of those cases where the story of the movie is better than the actually movie!

@@TheoreticallyMedia hmm not sure if this is art imitating life or life imitating art

Not as of yet- I’ll keep an eye out though!

Well, I believe the agreement was that the writers are allowed to use it if they choose, but the studios can’t demand that they use it. Which, is the right choice.

Thanks, appreciate you clearing it up.!@@TheoreticallyMedia

Ha, my problem with She-Hulk was more with the VFX slop. The story sagged here and there for sure, but overall I didn’t mind the ending that most people rail of. A little carpet pull? Sure, but it was in line with the campy tone and 4th wall breaks. Secret Invasion? Now that’s one that needed assistance. Ironically, it was also the one that got railed on for using AI in the title sequence. Haha, it used AI for the wrong part of production in my opinion!!

Agreed. Dictation software has gotten really good- but, yeah- keyboards still rule. I’ve been looking at picking up one of the old school mechanical keyboards again. The clicky kind. I kind of miss that sound!

It can’t. But do remember: this is the worst it will ever be. That said, like I mentioned in the video: I do think it’s handy as one of those “Save The Cat” type worksheets. Certainly nothing new, but possibly helpful to starting screenwriters to learn structure and plotting.

Right on! Please let me know when you've got a build you are ready to share!

I swear to god, if they make a live action Emperors New Groove, I’m going to Disneyland and punching Mickey in the nose.

Oh, 1000%. I’m just thinking those terrible basic cable or direct to Netflix movies might actually improve a bit with software like this. I mean, in general, given the fracturing media landscape, there’s just going to be a lot more noise everywhere. Good stuff always rises though.

Oh, 100% the WGA saw this coming. In a year? Yeah, this will be a writers room. It was good on their part not to cave on this issue.

@TheoreticallyMedia Three writers for 6 episodes where one is the producer and the other the showrunner...and writer 3 need not be WGA! I would hate to see what caving looks like.

@@mtaylor150was that the final agreement? I didn’t go over it in detail, but if so- that doesn’t sound like very much of a staffing win. I know that the WGA was pushing for writers to be on set (which serves as an excellent training ground to become a Showrunner), how are you supposed to do that with, like 3 people? I don’t know, there are for sure more knowledgeable industry pundits than me, but overall I can’t help but feel like that golden age of studio production is in its twilight years. Not that even during the golden age, talent was treated very well anyhow… Also, I keep forgetting that the actors are still on strike!

@@TheoreticallyMedia Six writers (including the producer and showrunner) if you exceed the 6 episodes. In the agreement, writers can also use AI so the working writers will benefit from this.

I mean, I did use an Midjourney Mickey in this video, so I’m expecting the Disney Legal SWAT team to kick down my front door any minute now.

You’re looking at it too myopically. I prefer to think of it as: “how much more could a person with talent get done using this technology. Or how much more free time could they have to enjoy life?” Also, talent is a pretty subjective term.

Let me know when you’ve got a build! Would love to check it out!
