Show HN: Deviant, a feature-length sci-fi thriller about AI, made with AI

I wrote a screenplay a couple years ago and decided to see if I could actually “film it” with AI video tools. Deviant is the result, an 84 minute sci-fi thriller about a tech mogul's clone that finds an exploit in its own safety code. The process: Character and set reference images in Midjourney and Nano Banana. Scene by scene prompts written from the script (I have an agent skill now for this), generated in Google Veo for most of the film, until it stopped working reliably, then I shelved it. Now with Seedance 2.5 available in the US on Higgsfield, I completed the final act. The last 20 minutes look noticeably better than the first 60. Edited just in iMovie, audio with ElevenLabs. I decided to release it as is rather than regenerate everything. Biggest problems were getting the actors to “act”, shot composition, character consistency, voice matching, and getting more than two characters to interact coherently in one frame. Happy to go into detail on any of it.
