Annecy Crowds Boo French AI Music Video ‘Étoile Filante’
A French music video for 'Étoile filante,' made using AI-generated images, was booed at Annecy on the festival's opening day.
During the projection, the French music video for Chien Méchant’s “ Étoile filante,” produced using generative artificial intelligence software, earned the extraordinary distinction of being booed by the Annecy audience. When the “Étoile Filante” video – directed by Kelzang Ravach and produced by Temple Caché and Mélusine Caillau – finished, a few people clapped, but most of the audience remained silent while “some spectators started booing the clip.” When Annecy unveiled this year’s lineups in late April, word quickly got out about the inclusion of Ryo Nakajima’s “Who Said Death is Beautiful?”, a 68-minute Japanese feature that used the Stable Diffusion AI software during development, alongside other techniques such as VR, motion capture and virtual camera shooting with a tablet.
