Summer 2026 Cohort

Enroll in the Summer 2026 Cohort

Eight Saturdays. Twenty seats. One room.

Starts Saturday, July 18, 2026 · 1:00–4:00 PM
Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurs

Eight weeks from now you will have a polished résumé, a matching LinkedIn profile, a portfolio website, the skills to negotiate your salary, a contract toolkit you can actually use, and interview preparation for AI industry careers.

You'll finish by delivering either a professional mock interview assessment or a full startup pitch deck to investors and co-founders.

There's homework every week. You bring it to class, and the room critiques it — your peers and working professionals both. That part is not optional, and it's the part that works.

Tuition is $800, paid in full. Your payment is your seat.

There is no waiting list and no acceptance step — the twenty seats go to the first twenty people who enroll. When they're gone, the next cohort is Winter.
Not sure yet? Come meet us first — Film Bar AI is free, every Tuesday, 6–10 PM at Halidom Eatery. Walk in, say hi, decide later.

Your seat in the Summer 2026 cohort is confirmed and your payment has gone through. A receipt is on its way to your email from Stripe.

Session 1 is Saturday, July 18, 1:00–4:00 PM at the Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurs. Bring your laptop, charged.

Before then, come meet the room — Film Bar AI is free, every Tuesday, 6–10 PM at Halidom Eatery.

Payment canceled

Nothing was charged, and no seat is being held for you. Your answers weren't saved — you'll need to fill the form in again.

Back to the site

The Summer cohort is full

All twenty seats are taken, and nothing has been charged. That's the whole room — we don't add chairs.

The next cohort is Winter. Come to Film Bar AI on a Tuesday and tell us you want a seat, or join the WhatsApp group and we'll announce it there first.

Requirements you must meet

This is a hands-on production cohort. You must supply your own tools. AIMG does not provide laptops, software, licenses, subscriptions, or internet access, and does not have loaner machines. If you cannot meet these requirements, please do not enroll — come to a free Film Bar AI Tuesday instead and talk to us first.

1 · Your own computer, powerful enough to do the work

You will run professional creative software: DaVinci Resolve, Blender, the Adobe Creative Suite, Higgsfield, and similar tools. These are demanding programs. A machine that only browses the web will not work, and you will not be able to complete the coursework on one.

Meets the requirement

  • Mac — Apple silicon (M1 or newer) with 16 GB unified memory or more. An 8 GB M1 will struggle badly in Blender and Resolve.
  • Windows — Intel Core i7 (10th gen or newer) or AMD Ryzen 7, 16 GB RAM minimum (32 GB recommended), and a dedicated GPU with at least 6 GB of VRAM — an NVIDIA RTX 3060 or better.
  • Both — a 512 GB SSD with at least 100 GB free, a current OS (macOS 14+ / Windows 11), and a reliable internet connection. Several of our tools are cloud-based.

Does not meet the requirement

  • Chromebooks
  • iPads, tablets, and phones
  • Laptops with integrated graphics only, and no dedicated GPU (most budget and ultra-thin Windows laptops)
  • Any machine with 8 GB of RAM or less

Unsure whether your laptop qualifies? Bring it to a Film Bar AI Tuesday and we'll look at it with you, for free, before you spend anything.

2 · Your own software and subscriptions

DaVinci Resolve and Blender are free. Adobe Creative Cloud, Higgsfield, and any other paid tool are your responsibility, at your own cost. Tuition does not include software, licenses, subscriptions, cloud credits, or hardware.

3 · Attendance, and what happens if you miss a Saturday

You are required to attend all eight Saturday sessions. If you miss one, a recording of that session will be made available to you, and you remain responsible for completing and submitting that week's assignment on time. Recordings are a backstop, not a substitute — the critique happens in the room, and it is the part that works.

Missing sessions does not entitle you to a refund, a make-up session, an extension, or a transfer to a later cohort.

4 · Tuition and refunds

Tuition is $800, paid in full at the time you enroll. We do not accept deposits, partial payments, or installments, and paying is what reserves your seat — there is no acceptance step.

Because seats are capped at twenty and your payment takes one out of the room, tuition is non-refundable once the cohort begins on July 18, 2026. Before that date, contact us and we will consider a refund at our discretion.

AIMG is not responsible for your inability to complete the coursework as a result of inadequate, incompatible, or malfunctioning equipment, missing software, or loss of internet access. The cohort prepares you for AI industry careers; it does not guarantee a job, a placement, an interview, or any particular income.

5 · Confidentiality, ownership, and mutual protection

Enrolling buys you a personal license to learn from this program — not a license to copy, resell, or repackage it, and not a license to take what is shared with you and use it against the people who shared it. By paying, you agree to the terms below. They are a condition of your enrollment and they survive the end of the cohort and any withdrawal.

  • The curriculum is ours. Every workshop, worksheet, template, prompt, workflow, slide, recording, and piece of instruction is the exclusive intellectual property of AI MAKERS GENERATION and D'Anjou, Inc. You receive a limited, personal, non-transferable license to use it for your own learning and your own creative work. You may not sell it, republish it, repackage it, teach it as your own, feed it into a competing course, product, or model, or share it with anyone outside the cohort.
  • Only AIMG records. You may not audio-record, video-record, screen-record, live-stream, photograph slides, or otherwise capture any session or private channel without AIMG's prior written permission. AIMG records sessions only so enrolled students can catch up; those recordings are AIMG's property and are covered by these same terms.
  • What's shared in the room stays in the room. Sessions, chats, and group channels are a confidential space. Business ideas, unreleased techniques, pricing, financials, contacts, personal circumstances, and anything else the founders, guests, or other students share there are shared in confidence. You agree not to repeat, post, publish, forward, or otherwise disclose that information outside the cohort, and not to use it to compete with, solicit from, or cause harm to the founders, guests, or other students.
  • You will not use our own material against us. You agree not to take information, materials, recordings, or statements shared with you in this program and use them to disparage the founders or AIMG with false or misleading claims, to unfairly compete, or to cause deliberate harm. Nothing in these terms prevents you from sharing your own honest opinion of your experience, reporting unlawful conduct to the authorities, responding to a lawful subpoena, or exercising any right the law does not allow you to waive.
  • No promises. No guarantees. This program is educational and prepares you for AI-industry careers. It does not guarantee a job, a client, an interview, a placement, a specific income, or any particular outcome, and nothing said in a session, a chat, or this application is a promise of a result. Results other people achieved are theirs, not a prediction of yours.
  • If you break these terms, AIMG may remove you from the cohort and its channels without a refund, and may pursue any remedy the law allows — including a court order to stop the misuse, because some of this harm cannot be undone with money alone.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia. If any single provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in full force.
