I'm a British Academy (BAFTA) voting member. Every autumn, the members' screener platform fills up with more than 100 eligible films—major contenders, obscure documentaries, and hidden gems all mixed together. I have a few weeks to decide what deserves my viewing time before I vote. The fun challenge is finding the sleeper nobody has heard of yet; the problem is the sheer volume of clutter I have to sift through. I built a workflow in Claude Cowork that turns the overwhelming list into an ongoing conversation with a curator that knows my taste. I started by inputting my film notes from previous years: what I watched each season, what I loved, what I abandoned, and why. Claude stores this in persistent memory alongside a growing profile of my taste, including my go-to critic, my low tolerance for slow cinema, the kinds of films that reward me, and my rule that a film gets minutes—not acts—to earn my time. Every session starts with this context already loaded. When a new batch of films drops, Claude opens the screener platform in its built-in browser, reads the full slate, and sends research agents to cover every title in parallel. They research the director, cast, runtime, Rotten Tomatoes scores, festival prizes, awards buzz, and whether my favourite critic has reviewed each film. Claude even pulls the transcripts of his YouTube reviews and summarises the verdict. In about 20 minutes, a 37-film batch is triaged into three categories: priority viewing, worth sampling, and skips. Slow starters are flagged so I know which films need a committed evening and which get 10 minutes to prove themselves. As I watch, I feed verdicts back in plain English, such as “gave it ten minutes, too abstract.” Claude updates both the tracker and its model of my taste, so each recommendation round becomes sharper. By voting time, I have a complete, searchable record of everything I watched and what I thought of it, built conversationally throughout the season. Step-by-step: 1. I input my film notes from previous years—everything I watched, loved, and abandoned, along with my reasons. Claude saves them to persistent memory, which every future session loads automatically, and builds a profile of my taste from them. 2. When new films appear on the members' platform, Claude opens it in its built-in browser and reads the full list of titles. 3. Claude launches parallel research agents to cover every title, including the cast, crew, runtime, Rotten Tomatoes scores, festival prizes, awards buzz, and my preferred critic's verdict from YouTube review transcripts. 4. Claude compiles a triage tracker that ranks every film by viewing priority, flags likely sleepers, and warns me about slow starters. 5. As I sample films, I report quick verdicts in plain English. Claude logs them and continuously refines its profile of my taste, so recommendations improve throughout the season. 6. At voting time, I have a complete record of what I watched, what I thought, and why, built conversationally across the season.
