Smoothie Studio Co., Ltd. Provided Interview Cooperation and Footage for NHK General's "News Naruhodo Zemi"

Smoothie Studio Co., Ltd. provided interview cooperation and footage for NHK General's "News Naruhodo Zemi: AI Mastery for New Graduates," scheduled to be broadcast from 11:00 PM on Tuesday, May 5, 2026. The program will introduce new graduates to useful generative AI applications, precautions, prompt utilization, and copyright points in their work. As a production company pioneering generative AI video production, we cooperated with the interview from the perspective of a practitioner, discussing the current state of AI-driven creative production and how generative AI is being utilized in video production. Additionally, some of the video materials that our company participated in producing will be used in the program as examples of generative AI utilization. Generative AI is expanding into various aspects of creative production, including planning, visual creation, video expression, and editing processes. At Smoothie Studio, we do not aim to use AI for the sake of using AI, but rather emphasize translating it into expressions that are effective as video, aligned with the goals of companies and works. Through this program, we hope that viewers will gain tips for utilizing generative AI in their work and an insight into creative production in the AI era.
