Artificial intelligence expands the possibilities of Mexican cinema

The National Cineteca and LG Electronics presented the first Festival of Short Films Created with Artificial Intelligence in Mexico, an initiative that brings together students, filmmakers and creators to explore new forms of audiovisual production using generative tools. The festival also shows how AI tools can facilitate audiovisual production without replacing artistic sensitivity or the narrative strength.

Artificial intelligence expands the possibilities of Mexican cinema

The National Cineteca and LG Electronics presented the first Festival of Short Films Created with Artificial Intelligence in Mexico, an initiative that brings together students, filmmakers, and creators to explore new forms of audiovisual production using generative tools.

The festival, presented in August 2026, seeks to show how artificial intelligence can help visualize scenes, optimize editing processes, and accelerate content creation. The participating and winning works will be screened during August and September in the OLED Hall at the National Cineteca of Mexico.

More than a technological demonstration, the initiative raises a conversation about the role of creativity in an industry that changes rapidly. The tools reduce some technical and budgetary barriers, but artistic sensitivity, narrative structure, and the ability to communicate an idea remain central elements of each work.

This transformation also offers a reference for other sectors. The adoption of artificial intelligence yields better results when it starts from concrete needs, integrates into existing processes, and includes indicators to evaluate timelines, quality, adoption, and results.

At Onix Board we help companies turn these capabilities into measurable operations. Our platform integrates multi-channel conversational automation, a unified inbox, e-commerce management, AI-assisted content generation, and analytical dashboards by flow and channel.

The festival case demonstrates an idea also applicable to business: technology can extend what a person or a team is capable of creating, provided there is a clear purpose and human control is maintained. To start, we recommend identifying a specific process, running a scoped pilot, and measuring its results before scaling.
