Had a blast (poor choice of words 💨) directing this spot! One of the most beautifully weird shoots I’ve ever been a part of, thanks to @echobendpictures. And I couldn’t have asked funnier, more elegant people than @jenlycrespo & @daddydumpling to waft the day away 😍

Had a blast directing/monkeying around on this promo for the 2026 @aionthelot conference later this month 🦍 This will also be screened ahead of panels throughout the conference at @amazonmgmstudios

Been a fan of @_tshark @gioiamike @ian_eck since year one, so @echobendpictures and I are happy to support. Special thanks to @dreamina_ai & @zoeyzy_ — I’m proud to be a CPP Signature Partner.

🐶 New Directing Work for @amazonads @petarmor @bestfriendsanimalsociety! 🐱

This was a really special one — in addition to this spot, we got to build a permanent dog park and catio for a shelter in need, culminating in an adoption day where we quadrupled their all-time record with over 90% of their animals finding homes 😻 Special shoutout to @rashi_designs who designed & built these play areas from scratch!!!

🐶 New Directing Work for @amazonads @petarmor @bestfriendsanimalsociety! 🐱

This was a really special one — in addition to this spot, we got to build a permanent dog park and catio for a shelter in need, culminating in an adoption day where we quadrupled their all-time record with over 90% of their animals finding homes 😻 Special shoutout to @rashi_designs who designed & built these play areas from scratch!!!

A belated thank you to @upscaleconf @freepik for inviting me to give a keynote at Upscale LA last month! It was so fun sharing some of my work and what we humans at @echobendpictures have been cooking up along with some of our AI-assisted approaches. Unique solutions to unique problems! Even more exciting was meeting & exchanging ideas with the hundreds of extremely talented attendees and fellow speakers. Looking forward to the next one!

Special thanks to @tealorini @pauvivas @alyk6ix & the entire community!

Excited to share my newest film A FISTFUL OF FEATHERS!!! 🪶🤠 Winner of the biggest global AI competition @chromaawards @aila_community award, finalist for Best Comedy among 3 other categories, and shortlisted by the illustrious @wearewonderstudios Wonder Film Festival! Humbled to say the least 🥹

Commissioned by @fairground.tv, without whom this film wouldn’t have been possible. Colin — an industry legend — and his team are building a first-of-its-kind FAST channel, so stay tuned as this film and select others roll out on millions of TVs in the coming months.

This film would also not have been possible without my incredible team (credits below!!!) that pulled multiple all-nighters over many weeks, brought innovation, humanity, and excellent taste, and did it all with the funniest senses of humor and laughter along the way. A lot of blood sweat and tears went into this one. Extra special shoutout to our Creative Technologist @__juliaharris__ , my partner-in-crime on this one, who is the epitome of good vibes, craftsmanship, and also voiced many of our ostriches 😂

We employed a combination of mocap and fully generative AI, in order to bring as much nuance and humanity to our characters. We actually finished the film right before Nanobanana came out, which certainly would have made our lives easier 😅 So lots of manual labor on this one. Hoping to make a BTS piece in the new year.
