Virtual Production (VP) and generative AI (GenAI) are rapidly changing the film industry. Film production has shifted from postproduction to non-linear production model and the demand for new digital skills is growing vigorously. Cutting-Edge Virtual Production at the Edges of The European Union (CUTTING EDGES) aims to elevate the VET and HEI film educators’ skillset on virtual film and media production with digital techniques, AI, artistry, and workflow for the educators to be able to disseminate their knowledge and skills to students of film and media and to create a Studio Access Model to inaugurate film and media professionals to the virtual production non-linear system.

The direct beneficiaries from the project are the educators, professionals and students who participate in the project network and the action of the five work packages. More benefits are listed in the Impact section.
