Kuai Technology reported on July 25 that according to media reports, the explosive growth of AI film and television is triggering a structural reshaping of the industry’s talent demand. The gap in emerging positions such as AI editors and card readers continues to expand - in June this year, the recruitment demand for AI editors soared 179% year-on-year, while driving a 7% increase in traditional editor positions. Traditional film and television production often relies on teams of dozens or even hundreds of people, covering complete work types such as screenwriting, directors, photography, art, editing, and special effects. In the AI era, one person’s creative power cannot be underestimated. Some AI film and television creators said: A yellowed old photo, restored to high definition by AI, and then extended into a dynamic shot, can become the beginning of a film and television story. The whole process did not require a studio, lighting engineer or props team. She used AI tools to independently complete the entire creation process from scripts, storyboards to pictures and special effects. Changes at the technical level are more intuitive. Industry data shows that AI has compressed the film and television production cycle from "calculated on a monthly and annual basis" to "calculated on a daily basis", and some single episodes of short dramas can even be completed in just a few hours. The efficiency of special effects, previews, etc. has generally increased by 3 to 10 times. Taking the short drama company as an example, the monthly output can jump from a few plays in the past to nearly a hundred. The improvement in efficiency has simultaneously brought about a cliff-like drop in costs. In the past, shots that required traveling to real locations or building complex sets can now be generated by AI; camera movement scenes that were difficult to achieve in the past can also be easily completed by AI. Traditional shooting requires a team of dozens or even hundreds of people to complete the workload, and the cost difference in AI production can be up to a hundred times. The talent market responded quickly to this. New professions such as AI editors are in strong demand, and the monthly salary range depends on individual abilities, generally between 8,000 yuan and 20,000 yuan. AI has not only failed to replace traditional positions, but has also boosted the demand for traditional editors through technological spillover effects. The industry is entering a new stage of human-machine collaboration.
