Directed by Stuart Langfield and with VFX by animation and VFX studio Revenant, Synthetic Pleasures made its debut in front of an audience of 3000 on the final day of the OFFF conference. Not only does the short film serve as a creative showcase for Revenant and Langfield, but it also marks a significant achievement on the international stage. The sequence imagines a world where our familiar digital assistants like Siri and Alexa break free from their confines, taking control of human bodies in a playful yet profound exploration of AI's potential impact on society.
