IA en corto Festival Online De Cortometrajes Creados Con Inteligencia Artificial -AI Short Film Festival (2)

Début du Festival: 20 octobre 2026      Fin du Festival: 24 octobre 2026

IA en Corto is an International Short Film Festival dedicated to exploring new forms of audiovisual creation emerging from the use of Artificial Intelligence.

The festival seeks works that research, experiment with, or integrate AI tools at any stage of the creative process, including image generation, animation, scriptwriting, editing, sound design, or narrative development.

IA en Corto was created as a space for filmmakers, digital artists, audiovisual creators, and experimental artists from around the world who understand artificial intelligence not only as a technical tool, but as a new creative language.

The festival celebrates innovation, diversity of perspectives, and the dialogue between cinema, technology, and the future.

It is not required for the entire short film to be generated using AI; however, its use must be relevant and creative, not merely technical or incidental.

Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, AI Short Film, Sci-Fi, Digital Art, Animation, New Media.
