@jordandchesney Can't wait

Tomorrow: The Alliance

@cfryant @runwayml Oh hell yeah

My submission to @runwayml's Big Pitch Contest: "The New Republic" A dark mystery anthology series set in an alternate history. This one means a LOT to me, so please share if you like it. #RunwayBigPitchContest

@jordandchesney @runwayml Thanks dude!

@gabemichael_ai @runwayml Looks amazing, man.

FLINT is my entry for @runwayml #RunwayBigPitchContest Would you watch this series?

Actual feedback we’ve gotten over the last few years: 2019: The what? For what? Why spend time on this? Maybe you should try doing something else. 2020: Why would you keep spending time on this? Will people ever care about it? 2021: What's the use case? Are people really going to have a machine create an image? 2022: The images look bad and blurry. Will this ever get good enough to create decent images? 2023: I can see images improving, but videos are pretty bad. Will it ever be able to make at least one decent clip? 2024: It can’t do human anatomy well. Will it ever be able to make hands with five fingers? 2025: There’s no consistency in the characters and worlds between scenes. Will it ever get better? 2026: The acting is not A-tier, it’s more B-tier acting. Will it ever get to A-tier? (We got this one just a few hours ago.)

Most creative ideas die in a notebook. Not because they're bad ideas. Because there's never enough time, crew, or budget to find out. I had an idea this week so I opened @Artlist_io Studio and built it.

Still no answer from TeamYouTube, and their DMs are closed. The only option they've left me, instead of giving me real support and not just replying through automated bots, is to invoke EU law, specifically Articles 14, 15, 17, and 20 of the Digital Services Act and demand a detailed written explanation. I don't know if you have something similar in USA. This is not optional. It's binding EU law. Maybe that way I can reach Google Community Outreach, an actual human who can review my case. It's ironic, to say the least, that their systems are the ones treating me 100% through automation, while my channel is the one being accused of being automated, even though it's the innocent one!! This is huge, because we were seriously considering, from Freepik/Magnific, creating a series of productions and pushing them hard on YouTube... but this is making me completely rethink it (although is not 100% my call, I have some weight on it). And I doubt we're the only ones feeling this fear right now: who would want to venture into creating a fiction series in 3D or with AI on YouTube, reach millions of viewers, and then suddenly get the channel demonetized as 'inauthentic' simply because it's 'generated' (3D/AI/etc.) plus 'fiction'? This is becoming personal for me. I can't help it. I'm earning like 20 bucks / month on this channel 😂, LOL, but this is not about money. It's about principles, and about valuing human involvement in my creations, even when using AI tools... tools like Nano Banana and Veo 3, which are created by Google itself! If I have to spend 50k on lawyers to get back a 20-bucks-a-month channel... I will absolutely do it, xD. For the glory of what is RIGHT.

A robot documentarian on the moon finds life at the Beresheet crash site. It does not go well for him. SPACE TRASH — episode one. Made entirely with Seedance 2.0 through the #dreaminaCPP Thank you to the @dreamina_ai team for the signature partnership.

The game has really changed in animation. This is my latest project Kyōdai (きょうだい ) AKA → "Siblings." An AI film concept I'm developing @promise_ai While not perfect by any means, tools like Seedance 2.0 allow for rapid prototyping and visual look development. Once explored, we bring in artists to hand draw and create the world to build and protect the IP. The VFX artist to build out the world with a hybrid 3D and AI methodology. This is the world we live in. What a time.

If you’re in Vegas, I would love to see you at the @NABShow ! 🏛️ Navigating the New Wave of Generative AI Tools 🕒 April 20, 2026 3:00 PM 📌 C9129T: Creator Lab Classroom Use code SPEAK26 for a FREE Show Floor Pass! 👉 invt.io/1lxbbbcpnb2

AI isn’t just another toolset. It’s reshaping what it means to produce. Next week at #NABShow 2026, I’ll be leading a workshop on navigating the rapidly evolving landscape of creative AI tools and what it actually looks like to build, create, and deliver in a GenAI world.

Making commercials and films with AI isn’t just exciting — it’s the future. That said, the hardest part isn’t the technology, it’s finding people you genuinely love working with, and sharpening your storytelling skills. Those two things will never be replaced by “clicking buttons.” The fundamentals that carry over from traditional filmmaking remain the same: 📕 Strong stories 🤝 Strong relationships If you treat these as secondary, you’ll eventually feel stuck and frustrated. But if you keep them front and center — valued, protected, and constantly nurtured — you’ll thrive in this new era. I’m deeply grateful to Julien Vallée and Google for giving me the opportunity to be part of this project. Here’s to many more.

@jordandchesney Gents this is so freaking awesome.

To my class of 2026 students, thank you for trusting the process and leaning in when it would have been easier to lean back. It's been an honor getting to know you this year and I am so unbelievably proud of all of you. Go and do great things.

These videos below were made by my students in the MFA Producers Program. Some came in skeptical. Some came in resistant. All of them came out making things that genuinely surprised me.

Thank you to @openart_ai and @ElevenLabs for sponsoring our class at @UCLAProducers and giving my students direct access to tools that are reshaping what production looks like.

@RichKleinAI @IXITimmyIXI @runwayml Thanks Rich! It was so good to see you again in person.

@gabemichael_ai @IXITimmyIXI @runwayml That was a very interesting panel discussion. Hearing about real world applications, outside of our community bubble, helps puts things into perspective.

Honored to be on stage at @runwayml's inaugural AI Summit this week alongside some of the sharpest minds in the business. 700 industry leaders and creatives attended the NY conference to explore how AI is reshaping how work gets done... and what comes next.

@MiSunKw @runwayml Blushing over here.

@gabemichael_ai @runwayml stage looks good on you
