Founder-filmmaker pioneering AI cinema across animation and live action.
What I'm looking for
I am a founding filmmaker and theorist in AI cinema who has created multiple historical firsts, including the first fully AI feature film and the first AI animated feature. I publish and lecture on The New Machine Cinema doctrine and fuse project-focused execution with systems-level thinking.
My work spans live action, stop-motion, CG and AI animation, and includes breakthrough titles such as Window Seat (2023), DreadClub: Vampire’s Verdict (2024), A Very Long Carriage Ride (2025), My Boyfriend is a Superhero!? (2025) and Strings (2026). I led end-to-end pipelines from LLM-assisted scripting to generative video, audio and mastering, securing festival awards and streaming distribution.
I am both creatively and technically fluent: I direct, edit and design narrative experiences across feature films, VR and interactive cinema, and I aim to expand generative cinema’s commercial and theoretical horizons through publishing, speaking and continued production.
