Following successful editions and events connected to Cannes, Venice, Dubai, Marrakech, Paris, Bali, and other major creative hubs, the AI Film Awards arrives in Brazil to spotlight the extraordinary energy and creativity of the Latin American film and advertising industries.

Brazil has always been a country of powerful storytelling, visual culture, music, emotion, and artistic innovation. With the rise of artificial intelligence tools in filmmaking, animation, visual effects, editing, music generation, and advertising, a new era of cinematic expression is emerging — faster, more accessible, and more experimental than ever before.

Our mission is to create a platform where filmmakers, AI creators, advertising agencies, brands, production studios, and technology pioneers can meet, collaborate, and inspire each other. We believe artificial intelligence is not a replacement for human imagination, but a creative amplifier that opens new possibilities for storytelling and artistic freedom.

The AI Film Awards Brazil will feature film screenings, awards ceremonies, networking events, masterclasses, creative talks, workshops, and industry collaborations focused on the future of AI-powered cinema and advertising.

The festival welcomes:

• AI filmmakers and directors
• Advertising creators and agencies
• Animation and VFX artists
• AI musicians and sound designers
• Creative technologists and startups
• Brands exploring innovative storytelling
• Students and emerging creators

Participants will benefit from international visibility, media exposure, networking opportunities, and access to a growing global community dedicated to the future of cinema and creativity.

The long-term vision of the AI Film Awards Brazil is to position Brazil as one of the leading creative ecosystems for AI-driven storytelling in Latin America and to build bridges between art, technology, entertainment, and global innovation.

Together, we are shaping the future of cinema.

    Poor response, even after being selected these guys are just behind new festivals but no response at all. Don't waste your money in this. They have telegram and noone will respond there and they will be simply busy about next film festivals. Highly un professional behavior.

    Although I was not able to attend AI Film Venice in person, my experience with the submission process was excellent. The communication from the festival organizers was prompt and professional, and they provided clear updates throughout. I am greatly pleased to have been included in the festival.
