I'm a Surgeon

I'm a Surgeon is a vibrant, AI-generated music video designed to challenge career gender stereotypes and inspire girls to dream big and aim high. Set to a catchy dance track, the video features cheerful AI animations of illustrations from the No.1 Best-Selling children's book When I'm a Surgeon, bringing a smile to the faces of young and old while delivering a powerful gender equity message in a subtle and engaging way.

 

Produced by Dr. Samantha Pillay OAM, the creator of the award-winning AI music video When I'm an Astronaut and the award-winning AI short films An Incontinent Truth and JUST SAY PSA, this film continues her mission to harness technology for social impact.

​

Dr. Pillay has seen the number of female surgeons in Australia rise from just 4% when she started her career more than 20 years ago to 14% today—but there is still work to be done. I'm a Surgeon is a celebration of progress and a reminder that we must keep challenging gender stereotypes in surgery and beyond.

​

By using AI, I'm a Surgeon also demonstrates how innovation is breaking down barriers in filmmaking, making storytelling more accessible for important causes that often lack traditional funding. Through this creative approach, the film aims to reshape perceptions, encourage diversity in careers, and empower future generations.
