HOP, an AI film by Flash And Fable

About the film

HOP is a wordless AI short film about growing up, growing older, and the moments we don’t realise we’ll one day miss. A seven-year-old girl draws a hopscotch grid outside her house. Every square she lands on throws her forward through her own life. It’s really about how much of our lives we spend wanting to be somewhere other than where we are. When you’re a kid, you can’t wait to grow up. You think being older means freedom. Then you get older and realise some of the freest moments of your life were probably the completely ordinary ones you didn’t think twice about at the time. Created as my entry for the Higgsfield Global Film Festival, the film was produced entirely as a solo project using Higgsfield Cinema Studio. One location. One character across five ages. Nearly seventy years of life. The entire project has been made open source, including prompts, reference assets and production notes. Open Source Project: https:
