Adrian E.
Cinematic Filmmaker & AI Video Creator | Brand Films, Ads & Higgsfield
I'm a cinematic filmmaker who combines real-world production with AI video. You get the look of a brand film, with the speed and volume that modern ad accounts need. I'm the founder of Esteban.Media, a video studio based in Madrid, Spain, with 6+ years shooting and editing for hospitality, lifestyle, travel and retail brands. I handle your project directly, and when a job needs more hands I bring in my team of specialists (extra camera, motion, sound). I work in English and Spanish and travel across Europe for shoots. WHAT I DO 🎬 On-location production (Spain & Europe) Brand films, hotel & restaurant content, events, interviews and corporate shoots. Own camera, lighting, audio and drone kit. Self-shooting or as part of your crew. 🤖 AI video that doesn't look like AI slop AI-generated scenes, B-roll, product shots and ads built with Higgsfield, Kling, Veo and Seedance, then edited, graded and sound-designed like a real commercial. 📈 Performance video ads (Meta, TikTok, YouTube) UGC-style and AI-assisted ads for DTC brands: hooks, variations and fast iteration. Ideal for monthly retainers. ✂️ Editing & color Short-form and long-form edits, social cutdowns, color grading in DaVinci Resolve, sound design and captions. WHY BRANDS HIRE ME 🔸 Real filmmaking judgment: framing, pacing and story, whether the shot comes from a camera or an AI model 🔸 Hybrid workflow: I can shoot the hero footage and extend it with AI, so you don't need two vendors 🔸 A studio behind me: solo speed when you need it, a full team when the project scales 🔸 Clear communication, on-time delivery and proactive ideas 🔸 Comfortable with ongoing work: monthly ad batches, content series and retainers 🏆 SELECTED WORK Suzuki Jimny commercial shot in the Caucasus · Satellite manufacturing film for Satlantis, presented to government and enterprise clients · AI launch campaign for Fresa · 15+ social ads for La Reina Boardshorts · Brand film for GC Arquitectos 🎥 KIT Sony A7 V (full-frame, 4K 10-bit) · Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Art · Sony 16-35mm f/2.8 GM · DJI RS 3 gimbal · DJI Air 3 drone · DJI Mic 2 wireless audio · 300W LED light · Edit & grade in DaVinci Resolve (MacBook Pro M4 Max) "It is a pleasure to work with Adrian.
