One More Year -> The Documentary I Never Filmed
Short summary
One More Year is an open-source, browser-based AI documentary studio that turns four user answers into a short film with performed voices, sound design, and an original score. It uses Gemini for directing and ElevenLabs for voice synthesis, running entirely locally with the user's own API keys. The project splits the workflow into five automated desks—interview, director, cast, sound, and print—mimicking a real production pipeline.
- •Open-source AI documentary studio generates short films from four user prompts using Gemini and ElevenLabs
- •Pipeline simulates real production with five automated desks: interview, director, cast, sound, and print
- •Runs locally in browser with user-supplied API keys; no hosted demo to protect paid keys
Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
