An AI-generated short film exploring historical memory through moving images and spatial storytelling.
Marching Through Memories explores how historical material can become an immersive visual narrative. The project connects research, AI-generated imagery, three-dimensional reconstruction, and spatial video into a continuous production process.

Historical references inform the visual direction. Generative tools are used to develop imagery, while spatial reconstruction and editing give those images continuity and atmosphere. The emphasis is on how a viewer experiences the story, and how AI can support that experience.
Establish historical references and a narrative direction.
Develop the visual language with AI imagery.
Translate scenes into spatial form.
Build continuity through motion and editing.
Created for the MIT AI Film Festival hackathon. The project explores a reusable production approach for immersive historical storytelling.
