In-depth research on AI image creation, demonstrating the power of integrated innovation
Teacher Guo Ruichun focused on visiting the center’s AI imaging technology research results, and watched the AI animated film “Yugong Moves Mountains” and the AI experimental animation short film “Jingyanggang” successively, and gained an in-depth understanding of the center’s exploration and practice of oriental aesthetics in AI generation. At the same time, in the center’s miniature model laboratory, Teacher Guo Ruichun learned about the technical process and test results of AI- generated images to 3D printing. Afterwards, in the Chinese Animation School Image Technology Laboratory, the center displayed project cases such as the ink animation work “Li Qiu” and the three-dimensional imitation stop-frame puppet animation “New Sanchakou”. Teacher Guo Ruichun highly recognized the center’s exploration of artistic style innovation and technological integration, and believed that it has unique academic value and international communication potential in the direction of “ Oriental Aesthetics + Artificial Intelligence “.

Build a bridge for school-enterprise cooperation and explore the future of AI film and television education
At the symposium, the two sides conducted in-depth exchanges on topics such as the joint construction of the intelligent computing center, international speech cooperation, and the construction of a deep learning platform, and reached a preliminary consensus on promoting the construction of joint research and development and teaching platforms between schools and enterprises. The two sides hope to jointly create an intelligent computing platform for AI image creation and teaching, give full play to the demonstration and leading role of the Beijing Film Academy in the national art education system, provide solid support for talent training and technological innovation in the field of Chinese film and television animation, and inject new momentum into the construction of a digital image creation system with Chinese aesthetic characteristics. In the future, the two sides will take this exchange as an opportunity to continue to promote the deep integration of artificial intelligence technology with film and television education and creation, and build a collaborative innovation mechanism with an industry demonstration effect. This investigation and exchange not only deepened NVIDIA’s understanding of the college’s cutting-edge direction in digital imaging and AI technology, but also laid a solid foundation for the in-depth cooperation between the two sides in scientific research co-construction, curriculum cooperation, and international communication in the future.
