AI Video | Video Editor | Motion Designer | Creative Director

I work at the intersection of professional post-production and generative AI, combining 14+ years of hands-on experience in video editing, motion design, VFX and 3D with today's rapidly evolving AI creative workflows. I'm a Creative Director and co-founder of two post-production studios, Dream Weavers and The Pixellence Studios, where I've led teams of up to 120 artists across broadcast, commercial and feature work. My studio and client work has included projects for HP, Canva, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Prime Focus, DNEG, Discovery, YouTube Originals, Sony and Star. What makes my AI work different is that I don't treat generation as the finished product. I use it as one stage in a complete visual production workflow: developing and refining references, maintaining character and subject consistency, matching shots, directing camera and motion, integrating voice and lip sync, and then taking the result through professional editing, compositing, motion design and finishing. The goal isn't to make something that looks "AI generated." The goal is to use AI where it genuinely improves the production and make the final piece feel intentional, coherent and production-ready.

My work has been recognized with a Best Animation Production Studio award at the CAMA Awards and two Silver awards at the Olive Crown Awards. I trained in 3D Animation & Visual Effects at Vancouver Film School. You work directly with me, without an agency layer. Many of my client relationships here have become long-term and repeat, including one running more than seven years. If you have a brief, references or even an early concept, send them over. I can help determine the right combination of AI, editing, motion, VFX and traditional post-production, and take it from the initial idea through to a polished final deliverable.
