DIRECTION, CG & MOTION
Welcome to my digital garden. I plant seeds haphazardly and joyfully, and see what sprouts in the spirit of exploration.

Beauty R&D
Once the frames existed, I got more curious about what else they could become. AI can add the small, stubborn details of realism, like condensation beading on glass or bubbles rising through a serum, that is super finicky to get right in CG. It can also localise: one hero frame can be adapted for different markets, with the ingredients and setting swapped to suit where it's seen, without rebuilding the scene every time.
I'm less interested in new tools replacing the craft that builds these worlds, and more in letting them travel further once they're built. A styleframe doesn't have to be the end of an idea - it could be the seed that germinates a whole new body of work.
