Generated.Photos Cites ‘It Happened One Day in East LA’ in AI Generated Photo Use Case
It Happened One Day in East LA was featured as a use-case on generated.photos, an AI photo generating company. We pulled AI generated faces from their database and used them for our yearbook props.
The yearbook pages had not been designed during the filming of our short. In fact, the actors were holding blank props with tracking markers. Yearbook layouts with the AI generated photos were added in post-production.

Lancaster filmmaker Victor Aguilar explorers this concept in his first short Indie film, “It Happened One Day in East LA,” which debuted on Aug. 19.Â
