Open-source video models are essential for indie filmmakers, argues one creator

Creator taherdhanera weighs in on AI video model accessibility: if only big studios can afford to train and control AI video models, what changes for independent filmmakers?
He argues this is exactly why open-source video models matter — the freedom to experiment, adapt tools to one's own stories, and build custom workflows without depending on a single company's pricing or decisions. "The next great filmmaker could be sitting in a small room with a story nobody in Hollywood would fund. Give that person the tools." A personal-opinion take on the open-source video ecosystem.
