We used AI as a render engine. Real actors. Real performances. Assets we licensed or built ourselves.

AI didn’t create this. It processed what humans made.

Michelle is the only AI character — by design. She’s part of our exploration into how human actors and artificial characters can collaborate in storytelling.

This is our proof of concept.

We’ll be sharing behind-the-scenes this week to break down our process — and the future of filmmaking we believe in.

We built a majority of our models and environments in Cinema 4D and Unreal Engine, giving AI real, authored worlds to work from — not guesses pulled from the internet.

Even the props were handmade or licensed 3D models.

No scraping. No stealing.
Just artists, tools, and an evolving pipeline.

The future and next step:
Training our own models using artist-consented data we control — alongside locally run AI systems that keep the creative process in the hands of filmmakers.

A new kind of power is emerging in culture: the identity industrialist.

As synthetic humans become more lifelike, the people who manufacture identity itself will shape media, advertising, politics, and even intimacy.

Dave Snyder examines what we gain, what we lose, and what happens when connection can be optimized at scale.
