Judges
Independent voices.
Jenny Krakovsky
Meet the first independent judge for the FilmsAI Halloween Contest 2026.
@jennykrakovskyJenny is a traditional filmmaker using new technology in pioneering and experimental ways to explore beyond the bounds of cinema.
Trained by the late Colin Young, founder of the National Film & Television School and a pioneer of observational documentary, Jenny began her career making documentaries and commercials for Nike, Prada, Adidas, Bentley, VICE, GQ, and WIRED before moving into narrative fiction.
She brings cinéma vérité sensibilities, a love of Italian Neorealism and French Nouvelle Vague, and an experimental approach to AI and hybrid filmmaking.
We're excited to welcome her perspective to this year's contest.
