After an opening day and a week of intensive online build days, the AIGC Filmmaking Hackathon reaches its grand finale. Join us for a screen showcase of every team's final film — short works of 2–5 minutes that turn real-world datasets into cinematic storytelling, built with AI and the TapNow platform.
This year's teams worked across two tracks: The Digital Unconscious, drawing on 44,500+ authentic dream narratives, and Social Impact Storytelling, translating the London Mayor's strategic priorities into film. The result is an afternoon of bold, strange and moving experiments in where AI filmmaking goes beyond simple generation.
Our jury — including BAFTA- and Emmy-winning director Martin Percy — will review the works live, assessing creativity, storytelling and technical execution, before announcing the winners. Each track's winning team receives a £500 award, with selected works showcased by Bionic Awards.
Come watch the films, meet the makers, and celebrate a week of creative risk-taking. Whether you followed the hackathon or are discovering it for the first time, all are welcome.
