Ai is destroying our lives, but not our careers.

We’re back in the studio talking cameras, creativity, and content creation—and this time, we’re digging into the future of filmmaking, photography, and what AI actually means for creative professionals.We kick things off with a failed attempt to keep politics out of the pod, quickly spiraling into a heated (and hilarious) debate on camera stabilization tools—yes, even gimbals on Super 16 film setups. From there, it’s a deep dive into the role of AI in creative workflows: where it helps, where it hurts, and why it still can’t replicate human intuition behind the edit.We unpack the emotional and technical weight of shooting film—what makes it rewarding, why it’s so risky, and why editing it can feel like sacrilege or salvation depending on who you ask. Then we shift gears into a candid discussion on creative tools, branding, and why your thumbnails might be tanking your content if they look too AI-generated.Later in the episode, we answer wild listener questions: what historical moment we’d shoot if we had a time-traveling Leica, the most frustrating client misconceptions we’ve faced, and why “Can I get all the RAWs?” is still the worst question a photographer can hear.From AI masking tools and LED wall setups to underappreciated color grading skills and the myth of “just fix it in post,” this episode is all about the tension between convenience and craftsmanship—and why human creativity still matters more than ever.🔗 Website: [https://www.cortandluke.com](https://www.cortandluke.com)📸 Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/cortandluke](https://www.instagram.com/cortandluke)🎬 TikTok: [https://www.tiktok.com/@cortandluke?\_t=8r93xifpxqy&\_r=1](https://www.tiktok.com/@cortandluke?_t=8r93xifpxqy&_r=1)Hosted by: Luke Montgomery and Cort Letcher\#photographypodcast #filmisnotdead #contentcreation #creativeworkflow #aidebate #weddingphotography #freelancecreatives #clientexpectations #filmvsdigital #editingworkflow #filmmakinggear #brandidentity
