AIGC Moves Toward Feature-Length Production

Chinese feature-film experiments are moving generative AI beyond short-form novelty into IP incubation and platform-backed 90-minute projects. Reports include a five-person, 48-day production costing under 500,000 yuan, alongside new crew roles and vendor strategies; economics, quality, and project claims require independent verification. Related AI-native vertical productions suggest geographic and format diversification but remain weakly documented.
