AN AI-ASSISTED FILMMAKING EXPERIMENT BLENDING LIVE-ACTION PERFORMANCE, CHARACTER TRANSFORMATION, AND GENERATIVE VFX. Bomb Squad combines live-action footage with AI-generated visuals. Three filmed walking performances were transformed into meme-based characters and composited into a real SVA classroom. Through prompt-based AI generation, a fictional explosion and its impact on the room—including shockwaves, lighting changes, and object interactions—were created to seamlessly blend reality with synthetic elements.
