PROCESS

From Sketch to Screen

A spec product film built in three stages. Reference photography shot in-studio with practical lighting. Storyboards drawn frame-by-frame on iPad. AI refinement to bring the boards to cinematic finish. Every stage controlled by the director's hand.

STORYBOARDS

Frame-by-frame iPad boards drawn against the photographic reference. Composition locked before any rendering touched the work.

REFERENCE PHOTOGRAPHY

Practical product photography shot in-studio, including featured prop work for Die My Love (A24, 2026) produced under license through Chandler Studio. The lens captured the matchboxes; the AI rendering came later.

AI REFINEMENT

Boards and photographs rendered through Veo3 and Kling, then refined in Photoshop, edited in Premiere Pro. The pipeline's job is finishing — not generating.
