The second day ends with a forward-looking panel on speculative world-building and the role of artificial intelligence in film space. Designers, technologists, and scholars will debate the creative potential, aesthetic challenges, and ethical questions of AI-driven design. This finale positions production design at the crossroads of art and innovation, asking: how will future filmmakers weave together physical construction, digital imagery, and algorithmic processes? It’s a fitting close — an invitation to imagine cinematic environments that are hybrid, immersive, and evolving.
Additional event organisation by: Elva Yanuaria Algravez Espinoza, Jaime García Estrada, and Felipe Herrera Lozano
