Portraits
Year: 2026
Portraits is a short documentary that follows Hung, a speed portrait artist who captures the souls of his subjects in a bustling Da Nang night market. As he draws me, the film offers an intimate look into his simple life and his profound reflections on how AI technology is affecting a craft he has honed for a lifetime. The film explores his personal journey of discovering his talent and the deep meaning he finds in creating lasting, tangible memories for others, one sketch at a time. This project provides a unique, human-centered perspective on the impact of AI from an artist on the other side of the world, a voice that is rarely heard in the global conversation about technology.
