ChristinaAmundsens film 'NATURES CHILD' has been featured in DesignRush as the "Best Nature Video Designs That Will Captivate You With the Planet’s Beauty"!

DesignRush writes:
"This 4-minute film sets two worlds side by side, comparing the emotions of the children’s habits. Christina Amundsen’s Nature’s Child depicts what’s known as the loneliness of the present digital age and contrasts it with the past’s analog era, where youth immersed themselves in natural wonders, exploring the sights.

While the video begins with a sad, dull atmosphere starring detached children staring at screens, it slowly transitions to a fascinating selection of captivating frames full of stunning scenery. As the visuals evolve, we hear grown people remember their youth, reminiscing about their long walks in the woods and lying in the valleys, embracing nature’s gifts."

JEPPE KOLSTRUP X PLANBØRNEFONDEN

PlanBørnefondens 2023 Christmas campaign by Kiki Gotaway and FERN. puts the concept of a sponsorship certificate at the fore.

FashionForum.dk is today featuring an interview with director and co-founder of FERN., Jeppe Kolstrup, where he tells about FERN's new department, FERN:AI. Jeppe tells about the ethical, legal, and climate-positive considerations by using AI as well as the incredible creative possibilities in working with AI.

"We often produce our campaigns abroad, and we'll continue to do so in the future. But with AI, we have the opportunity to create a campaign that takes place in the Sahara, on the North Pole, or even on Mars without having to use a lot of environmentally harmful resources to get there. And with AI, we don't even have to limit ourselves to real-world locations. Suddenly, a swimwear campaign in Atlantis is within reach," Jeppe Kolstrup tells Fashion Forum.

Last week the magazine Dansk Markedsføring brought an interview with director and co-founder of FERN., Jeppe Kolstrup, where he tells about FERN.'s new department, FERN:AI. He both tells about our creative considerations as well as ethical and legal considerations when using AI to create pictures and films.

Produktionsselskabet Fern lancerer AI-afdeling - og har nedskrevet tre retningslinjer, så dets arbejde med AI bliver etisk forsvarligt.

INTRODUCING: FERN. AI

It is with excitement, curiosity and a bit of awe that we launch FERN. AI.

https://fern.photo/ai/

Is AI the future? No, but it's definitely a part of it.

At FERN. AI, we specialize in the AI discipline that we call "Unreal real". which means that our AI-projects aim for photorealistic results - often with a twist.

"Is AI replacing FERN.'s creative talents?" you could ask. Certainly not. In our view, AI images can only be really good if the creator already has a sense of creativity and concepts and possesses a strong style and good taste - just like FERN.'s creative talents. Moreover, the AI images also require good Photoshop skills to make the AI generated images look less smooth and digital.

Does this mean that from now on all FERN. creatives will only have to create images - and later films - behind a computer? Certainly not. At FERN. we will guide the brands, organizations and agencies we work with in when it is appropriate to create a campaign in AI and when a photo shoot or film production should be done. AI must be seen as an additional creative platform where FERNs. creatives can create visual campaigns.

FERN. has engaged Dimitri Bochukov as FERN.'s Head Of AI. Dimitri has trained all of FERN.'s talents in working with AI. With the various AI programs, FERN's creatives can create AI projects based on the style each of our talents possesses.

However, AI is also associated with a number of ethical considerations and dilemmas. And the legislation is almost non-existent in the AI area at the moment. That is why we at FERN have developed a number of ethical guidelines that we follow during the development of commercial AI campaigns.

Read our guidelines at https://fern.photo/ai/

The guidelines can certainly be refined and improved. That is why we at FERN. wish to be a part of a dialogue with others about ethical directions when using AI in a campaign context.

The possibilities with AI seem limitless, which makes it enormously exciting and creative to work with. However, we will always do so with consideration and with a further development of our ethical guidelines in mind.

Thanks to all our creative talents for welcoming FERN. AI - and not least for contributing fantastic works.

All our talents work can all be seen at https://fern.photo/ai/
