Moments Lab And LucidLink Expand AI-Powered Workflow Integration For Cannes Film Festival 2025

Moments Lab, a leader in AI video discovery, and LucidLink, the pioneer in real-time cloud collaboration, are proud to announce the integration of Moments Lab’s latest multimodal AI engine, MXT-2, with LucidLink’s newly enhanced product. This powerful combination will be deployed by global media brand Brut during the 78th Cannes Film Festival, taking place from 13 May – 24 May 2025, building on the record-breaking success of their collaboration at last year’s event.

Moments Lab’s most advanced AI model to date delivers video understanding at scale by generating rich, time-coded natural language descriptions of footage. With new features like Custom Moments and Custom Insights, MXT-2 enables teams to instantly identify compelling scenes, classify themes and generate editorial content from editorial video. The AI has been trained on over 1.5 billion images, and outperforms Google Research’s VidSeq by 47% on video sequencing. LucidLink’s latest platform introduces enterprise-ready features including a mobile app for iOS and Android, web-based file browsing, dynamic tiering for storage management, and seamless integration with AWS S3. These enhancements provide creative teams with instant, secure access to large media files from anywhere, eliminating the need for downloads or file syncing.

Brut, an official media partner of the Cannes Film Festival, will utilize the integrated Moments Lab MXT-2 and LucidLink solution to streamline its coverage of the Cannes Film Festival. By leveraging MXT-2’s AI capabilities and LucidLink’s real-time collaboration tools, Brut’s teams across Paris, New York, and New Delhi will be able to rapidly access live footage, identify key moments, and produce engaging content for audiences around the world.
