AI use in Turkish historical documentaries

Overview

Local municipalities and creators in Turkey are utilizing artificial intelligence to reconstruct historical narratives and cultural heritage through film.

In Antalya, a documentary based on the book by archaeologist Aytaç Dönmez was released to visualize ancient architecture and mythological scenes. The project, directed by Serpil Devrim, combines real footage with AI-generated imagery to make historical narratives more accessible to the public.

Similarly, the Taşköprü Municipality released a 14-minute short film titled ‘7 Kemerli Bir Zaman Geçidi: Taşköprü’. This production, which utilized AI to explore themes of time and civilization, received several international accolades, including nominations and awards at film festivals in Korea, Cannes, and London.
