# CULTSHOT

**S**ynthetic **H**ybrid **O**n-set **T**oolset

Generative AI built specifically for narrative filmmaking. We're making impossible films possible.

## Vision

Current gen AI serves marketing. We're building for directors who need coverage they couldn't capture on set, new angles without reshoots, zero copyright concerns.

Unlike generic AI tools, **CULTSHOT** trains on your own production assets, with full rights documentation.

## Current Status

Our vision is full narrative AI generation. While we're optimizing for that end-to-end solution, we're already solving production challenges today through our partnership with IIW Studio.

**Status:** In active development. Pilot launching Q1 2026. Now selecting partners.

IIW Studio is our exclusive VFX integration partner, bringing **CULTSHOT**'s capabilities directly into professional productions.

**IIW provides:**
- Professional expertise and active productions
- Industry relationships and client trust
- France tax rebate eligibility (30-40% TRIP)
- VFX pipeline integration and supervision

**We provide:**
- AI models and technical infrastructure
- Custom integration with production pipelines
- Workflow optimization for AI-enhanced production

This partnership lets us integrate with professional pipelines today while learning from demanding production needs.

## Phase II: Capture Protocols

We've developed specific capture protocols for cast, locations, and props. Every element of your production becomes a creative asset:

**Cast recording:** Capture performances from every angle. Create new shots without calling actors back.

**Location scanning:** Record entire sets and environments. Change lighting, extend spaces, create new angles.

**Props & wardrobe:** Document every detail. Perfect continuity across all generated shots.

**Footage integration:** Your actual film becomes training data. Everything matches seamlessly.

## Phase III: CULTSHOT Pipeline

Productions using **CULTSHOT** can generate entirely new narrative content while maintaining complete creative control. Our pipeline transforms captured assets into pure generative possibilities: creating scenes, moments, and stories that exist beyond the constraints of physical production and budgets.

---

## What It Does

- Create new shots, angles, and scene variations using your captured scans
- Maintain visual and performance continuity with your original footage
- Avoid AI artifacts and uncanny results by training on your rushes
- Provide streamlined tooling to refine key creative moments

---

## How It Works

Start with your script. We identify what needs to be digitally captured (characters, locations, moments), then:

1. **Capture:** Volumetric scans, LiDAR, voice performance
2. **Train:** Tailored model from your rushes
3. **Generate:** New shots from approved assets

**Volumetric scans** capture 3D performances in three dimensions. Edit or reuse performances from any angle without reshoots.

**LiDAR** gives pixel-accurate spatial data. Relight, recompose, or rebuild scenes with centimeter precision.

---

## Why Now

Current AI tools serve marketing. Film production needs legally clear, creatively precise tools built for professional workflows.

Industry signals:
- Ted Sarandos says AI will make content "better, not just cheaper"
- Darren Aronofsky launched Primordial Soup with Google DeepMind
- CAA backed Moonvalley's $84 million raise

The pieces are moving, but serious filmmaking still lacks tools built for how we actually work.
