AI video workflow consulting / internal tools / automation

I build practical imaging tools for your team.

Film-literate AI video workflows, internal tools, and in-house image and video engines for brands, agencies, studios, and production companies.

No hype.No deck dependency.Working systems.
Workflow previewIn-house tools for photos, video, references, and campaigns.

Cinematographer turned systems builder. 20+ years across production, software, automation, and deployment.

Automation

Image and video generation workflows powered by leading models inside your own application.

Internal tools

Bespoke interfaces for teams to create, review, organise, and reuse generated assets.

Image and video engines

In-house AI systems for photos, videos, campaign visuals, references, and content.

Inside the system

A focus pull through the working pipeline.

Each layer earns the next: production truth becomes shot language, generation stays reviewable, and approved work moves into an owned publishing loop.

01Reference

Start with production truth.

Existing frames, brand rules, shot references, and delivery constraints become the source material—not decoration added at the end.

02Shot language

Translate taste into instructions.

Lens, light, blocking, continuity, motion, and protection rules give the system a film-literate visual grammar.

03Generation

Generate inside a controlled engine.

The team creates image and video passes through a repeatable interface instead of rebuilding the workflow for every campaign.

04Review

Keep judgement in the loop.

Review states, approvals, versions, and reusable references keep human taste visible while the system handles repetition.

05Publish

Ship, measure, and learn.

Approved assets move into owned pages, campaigns, reporting, and the next production cycle without losing their history.

Why me?

I understand the work before the tool.

I understand creative production, business operations, software, AI workflows, and how teams actually adopt new tools.

01

Send the workflow

Show me what is slow, manual, repetitive, or stuck.

02

Choose the build

I work out what AI helps with and what should stay human.

03

Ship it

I build, connect, test, train, and improve it.

Next stepSend me the workflow.I will tell you what is worth building first.

Who is this for?

Brands, agencies, studios, production companies, and creative teams that need AI video workflows, internal tools, image engines, or automation that can survive real production pressure.

What gets built?

Practical systems: AI video workflow tools, review dashboards, asset reuse, image and video engines, prompt/reference interfaces, publishing loops, and reporting.

Why does film experience matter?

Cinematography judgement keeps the system honest: shot language, lighting, blocking, continuity, client taste, and commercial delivery all shape what the AI tool should do.
