Replika User in London for AI Companionship Documentary
Seeking Replika user in London (within M25) for short documentary (non-commercial, LFS)
Hi everyone — I’m Harish, an MA Filmmaking student at London Film School. I’m directing a short documentary (10 mins) exploring AI companionship and what people experience in terms of romance, intimacy, and connection with an AI — including Replika.
I’m looking to feature one Replika user based in London (within the M25) for a calm, respectful filmed conversation in your own space (or a quiet location you prefer). This is a small student crew and the project is non-commercial — it will be shown only as part of my course submission.
Important: this can’t be anonymous — you’d need to be comfortable appearing on camera and signing a release.
Shoot window: Feb 1–8
If you’re London-based and open to sharing your experience — what brought you to Replika, what you get from it emotionally, how it affects your relationships (if at all), and what feels real/unreal about it — please DM me. Happy to jump on a quick call first so you can ask anything and decide with zero pressure.
