There. I said it. AI isn’t the problem. Weak pipelines are.

This Founder film project (selective shots montages) was done at @kulfi.collective with a simple limbo shoot with @gvkjr for @myequal.ai in july 2025.

This was pre–Nano Banana Pro.
We worked with Nano Banana 🍌 (the first version) and Seedream 4 for images, enchancor for realism, mix of Kling 2.1, Runway Act 2 and Veo 3 for video generations. The results were fast, but not production-ready.
So we routed around the gaps.
A VFX artist was hired and worked his magic around the face and composited it back onto the generated footage.

Hybrid Pipeline we went with :
screengrab from offline -> input as reference image in NB (change background) -> fix the face in Adobe PS (highest quality) -> upres/facial details in enhancor -> generate video output via runway act2/kling/veo -> composite the face back again from offline -> add motion graphics -> tweak music & sound -> color correct the entire film.

If you want quality today, you don’t wait for perfect tools. You build hybrid pipelines and design around limitations.
That’s the real advantage right now.

@bombaysweetshop asked us, “how can we take our store to the next level?” We thought, why not gamify the user experience? 👀

After a lot of brainstorming, play testing and code writing, we built Moti Chor — a custom interactive video game inspired by their iconic Mighty Motichur Laddu! 🤔

But it’s not just all fun and games, winners also get some irresistible treats and fabulous discounts in store, all tracked by a custom-built backend dash board we made for the Bombay Sweetshop cashiers! 👾

We saw so many people jump in and play Moti Chor, from kids, parents and even grand parents. So what are you waiting for? Head on down to Phoenix Palladium in Lower Parel and win some lovely treats! 💛

Special shoutout to @thecommacollective for bringing this vision of our office to life!

Can't believe it's been three years since this title sequence came out! Was cleaning up my hard drive and came across some BTS footage we didn't end up showing anywhere. I have gotten so many questions about how these shots were done here's what it looked like behind the curtais.
