POST CINEMA: IN THE AGE OF AI
Book ID/图书代码： 09230725C00002
English Summary/英文概要： The only must-have guide for filmmakers ready to thrive in the Age of AI.
POST-CINEMA: THE AGE OF AI isn’t just about the future of Hollywood—it’s about the future of human expression. AI-generated films, interactive narratives, and virtual actors are only the beginning. As Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs), Spatial Media, and Quantum AI take hold, storytelling will evolve beyond the screen, dissolving the boundary between creator and audience, imagination and reality.
Scott Billups isn’t a theorist—he’s been inside the machine. From pioneering virtual actors like Marlon Brando and Marilyn Monroe to building AI-driven filmmaking engines under lock and key at major studios, he’s lived the collision of art and artificial intelligence. His Digital Moviemaking series guided Hollywood through its first digital revolution—now, in Post-Cinema, he charts the next one, where AI isn’t just a tool but an autonomous force, generating stories, characters, and entire cinematic worlds in real-time.
This is still a book about movies—but not the kind you grew up with. The old Hollywood system is being rewritten by algorithms, and the new creative order will be dictated by those who understand the technology shaping it. Whether you’re an artist, a technologist, or just trying to grasp the scale of what’s coming, Post-Cinema is your front-row seat to the most profound transformation in media history.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 这是一本有关人工智能时代可以协助电影人成功发展的必备指南。
《后电影时代：人工智能时代》 不仅关乎好莱坞的未来，更关乎人类表达的未来。AI 生成电影、互动叙事、虚拟演员仅仅电影新时代的开端。随着脑机接口（BCI）、空间媒体和量子 AI 的兴起，叙事将超越银幕，模糊创作者与观众、想象与现实之间的界限。
斯科特·比利普斯（Scott Billups）并不是一名空谈的理论家——他了解机器的内部运作。从率先打造马龙·白兰度和玛丽莲·梦露等虚拟演员，到在大制片厂秘密研发 AI 驱动的电影制作引擎，他亲历了艺术与人工智能的碰撞。他的《数字电影制作》系列曾引领好莱坞完成第一次数字化革命——而在《后电影时代》中，他勾勒出下一次革命的蓝图：AI 不再只是工具，而是自主力量，能够实时生成故事、角色，甚至完整的电影世界。
这仍然是一本关于电影的书——但绝不是你成长过程中所熟悉的那种电影。旧的好莱坞体系正被新的方程式重新整合，而新的创作秩序将由那些理解技术并能驾驭它的人来主导。无论你是艺术家、技术专家，还是只是想要理解这场变革规模的读者，《后电影时代》 都将是你坐在最前排来第一时间见证媒体史上最深刻转型的门票。
Awards/获奖情况："Billups is Hollywood’s baddest pixel-packing cowboy, riding on the fringes of an industry that views him with interest, admiration, and some degree of incomprehension." —WIRED Magazine
