Info.
To mark the first anniversary of OpenAI’s DALL·E, Native Foreign and director Chad Nelson created Critterz, the first animated short film entirely generated with AI visuals combined with traditional Hollywood production—animation, voice performance, music, and sound design. This bold experiment premiered at Annecy, Cannes Lions, and Tribeca, earning nods like a Producers Guild Innovation Award nomination.
