June 5 19:00 (GMT +2) – June 7 18:00 (GMT +2), 2026
ATM Virtual Studio, Wał Miedzeszyński 384, 03-994 Warszawa, Poland
We’re inviting you to Warsaw for a hands-on workshop in ATM Virtual Studio.
AI is changing every department in film.
Whether you work in the production, post, art department, costume, makeup, camera, or you’re a screenwriter or creative director - this weekend is for you!
Yes we want the film crew. This weekend is not for nerds only!
By the end of Sunday you will leave with key shots done by your team. We will walk you through a full demonstration of the AI-virtual hybrid production workflow applied directly to your script. Not theory. Hands on work with Gen-AI and Virtual Production workflows!
Mark Hobson “Hobz”
Australian multi-award-winning DOP based in Dubai, working across feature films and commercials on four continents — he thinks like an engineer and shoots like a poet.
Maciej Żemojcin
Co-founder of ATM Virtual and one of Europe’s leading AI trainers for film professionals, bridging the gap between creative vision and cutting-edge technology.
Matt Szymanowski
Silicon Valley-bred producer, AI director and AI artist who doesn’t adapt to new tools — he thinks in them.
Bartosz Nalazek, PSC
LA-based Director of Photography and founder of the Artos Foundation, whose work includes Sundance selection Run Sweetheart Run and who worked alongside Janusz Kamiński on The Post, Lincoln, War Horse and Bridge of Spies.
Introduced by Industry@Tallinn & Baltic Event, Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival, Women in Film & Television Poland, and Artos Foundation. Supported by Creative Europe MEDIA.
Apply with your AI & virtual production project idea or without. Collaborative teams will be built during the weekend. Film is a collective work and we keep it like this. Across the weekend, each team advances around a concept and leaves with a piece of real film material produced together and a knowledge of what are the next steps.
No team for the workshop? No problem. You are welcome to join one of them.
Participation fee: 180€ (incl. VAT)
