Episode (193) BackTrack: Emmy Award Winning Director Cameo Wood On A.I.

Released in 2018, EMMY Award-winning sci-fi short REAL ARTISTS tells an eerily prescient story.

This special BackTrack episode revisits our 2019 conversation with EMMY Award-winning director Cameo Wood. During that conversation, we discussed Cameo’s acclaimed sci-fi short film REAL ARTISTS, adapted from a short story by author Ken Liu. The short tackles A.I. in a way that is eerily prescient in light of the introduction of generative A.I. tools such as Chat GPT, Bard, and DALL-E.

Episode (59) Cameo Wood - Director Of The Emmy Award-Winning Sci-Fi Short 'REAL ARTISTS

Director Cameo Wood on set.

REAL ARTISTS is the Emmy award-winning sci-fi short film about a young animator who discovers on an interview for her dream job that the films produced by her potential employer are not made entirely by people.

The short film is based on a short story by lauded author Ken Liu. It was adapted to screen and directed by accomplished filmmaker Cameo Wood.

During our interview with Wood, she discusses her inspiration for adapting Liu’s short story to film. She also shares her unique perspective on the impact emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and virtual reality are having on our daily lives - and how that influence may affect how art is both created and consumed.
