Breaking news from the other side of the moon
NASA sent astronauts around the Moon for the first time in 50+ years with the Artemis II mission. That’s the official story.
We were more interested in the unofficial one.
For our latest Made with Lenovo Yoga × AMD flight, we paired comedians with AI artists to fantasize about the Other Side of the Moon and let them run with it. The result: three “breaking news” reports that feel just believable enough to make you question things.
Live reports from the moon
Each video plays like an urgent news update. But instead of scientific discoveries, we get something far less expected… and a lot more human. The starting point? A fresh Gen Z perspective on a billion-years-old planet...
@finalycomedy Ă— @jonuriarte Gen Z discovers the Moon and immediately gentrifies it. Co-working spaces. Matcha spots. Zero-gravity startup gyms. It escalates fast.
@ericdalessandro Ă— @holdenboyles Aliens are already there. Not hostile, just deeply invested in Earth culture. They recreate TikToks, study trends, and treat humanity like content.
@sarahadelman1 X @tinkertailor The Moon turns out to be a women-led utopia. Better balance, better energy, and yes, brunch is a daily ritual.
How It Came Together
Alongside each film, the teams shared “How I Made It” breakdowns. A look into how the ideas took shape, the iterations along the way, and the tools used to bring each story to life. It’s not just the final output. It’s the process behind it.
The hype around Artemis II gave us a strong starting point, but curiosity pushed it further.
The Moon isn’t empty. It’s just waiting for better storytellers.
