Between Prompts and Representation: A Case Study in Audiovisual Research-Creation with Generative Artificial Intelligence (Research Log).xlsx

This is a "prompt log", designed to monitor both human and non-human (AI) creative processes in real-time within the production of "El Majaya" a short fiction film produce using generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), drawing inspiration from a Caribbean imaginary of life after death. The "Prompt log" facilitated a retrospective critical analysis. The examination of the activity's registry and the prompt log reveals technical and representational challenges that emerged during the creation process, necessitating multiple iterations to achieve a visual representation aligned with the cultural identity and intentions of its creators, this results in more financial and time resources to produce one accurate shot.
