I’m excited to share that my animated AI film Bobby and The Magical Robot, Episode 1, “Left It to Bobby,” has been named an award winner at the Egyptian American Film Festival. It’s an incredible feeling to see my AI filmmaking projects continue to receive international recognition, especially with a story that began with a kid, a robot, and a single leaf.
One leaf, one robot, and a park full of trouble
Bobby is hanging out in the park when his magical robot friend decides to “enhance” a simple leaf. What starts as a small experiment quickly spirals into chaos as nature begins reacting in ways neither of them expected.
That’s the fun of making this animated kids’ series. A quiet afternoon can turn into an adventure in a matter of seconds, and Bobby and his robot have to figure out what to do next.
About the Egyptian American Film Festival
The Egyptian American Film Festival is an annual New York City event that brings filmmakers and audiences together across cultures. Its inaugural edition in November 2021 screened 40 films from 11 countries over three days. The festival has showcased features, shorts, documentaries, mobile films, and student work, alongside programs spotlighting American, Egyptian, and Arab cinema.
The festival supports emerging artists and encourages dialogue through screenings and workshops in areas such as acting, directing, music, and screenwriting. I’m grateful to have my work recognized by a festival that makes room for different voices and ways of making films.
