Matsuyama: One more thing, I would like to talk about AI technology from Okawara.

Okawara: Nice to meet you. My name is Okawara. I work with Matsuyama. As soon as possible, what kind of AI technology do you imagine?

Yamada: What I saw on TV was an AI-powered security camera that analyzes how I walked and identifies people with a 90% probability. Well, it doesn't work for me because I change the way I walk.

Okawara: (laughs). However, Intel's OpenVINO tool, which I will introduce today, is similar to that. To put it simply, you can use various AIs in an optimized form with a single computer.

Okawara: What is reflected in the camera is called object recognition technology, and in the past, it was processed after shooting and applied CG and effects. However, this tool can be analyzed and processed in real time.

Ito: For example, if you program it so that you don't show me, it will disappear from the screen?

Okawara: That's right.

Yamada: It's very convenient. If you only recognize the performers, you don't have to stop by a passing person on the location and shoot. 。

Ito: What awesome, you don't have to stop the most hardest man.

Okawara: In fact, we performed an AI installation that analyzes humans when we held a screening of Season 1 in Kanazawa last year. Let's take a look at the MV you created earlier using this technology.

Okawara: Applying effects on the projected images is a technology that has existed in the past, but with the evolution of technology, effect processing has become possible in real time. As a result, it has become possible to proceed with production while checking on site, and the quality of creative has been improved.

Shimogyo: Maybe it's possible to make a live video like an MV?

Matsuyama: With the increasing number of live streaming live performances due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I think it will be possible to produce unique productions using technology in the future.

Yamada: It means that you will be able to enjoy live and distribution in different ways. If that happens, the appeal of distribution is likely to improve more than ever.

Okawara: That's right. As I mentioned earlier about the weather, the future where the weather can be freely changed as such technology becomes utilized in the field is not far away. I think that if I can shoot flexibly, I think that the freedom of the work will increase.

Yamada: Because the liver of shooting is empty. Even if the sun goes down a little or cloudy, it will be retaken no matter how good a play is. It would be great if there was a technology that could cover it. No, when it comes to this, I want Mr. Matsuyama to always be on the scene.

Ito: "Can't you correct this weather?" It's like "I've already changed it!" (laughs). Now, when shooting, the lighting people always check the sky and shoot sunny scenes with a few clouds without busyness. But with this technology, you don't have to worry about the weather, and I think the quality of the work will be improved significantly because the extra ideas will be reduced.

Shimogyo: It's nice to be able to focus only on where you need to focus. I think that the word cover that Mr. Yamada said is good, and it is a very good environment to have technology support what I want to express. I felt that the possibilities were infinite!

Matsuyama: The technology itself is colorless and transparent, and I think it's only a vivid color come out when mixed with another expression. I am very excited about the new initiatives to be exhibited with movies and ikebana in this project.
