UNPROMPTABLE.
SLOW.
HUMAN.

There's no prompt for my videos. They come out of hundreds of small decisions: which take, which face, which frame, where to cut. The machine makes takes. A human makes the film. That's what I teach.

A still from the music video I'M YOUR SLOP

I'M YOUR SLOP · 10 days · 263 shots generated · 61 made the cut

Why it can't
be prompted

Anyone can get a clip out of a machine. A film is something else: a chain of choices where every one depends on the one before.

Unpromptable

No magic words. The song decides the board, the board decides the shots, and every shot is built to cut into the next one. Change one thing and the rest moves.

Slow

Slow on purpose. Generating is almost free; choosing is the work. Most of what the machine makes never reaches the screen, and that's how it should be.

Human

The machine doesn't know what's funny, what's sad or what's too much. You do. Take care of every detail: nobody notices one, everybody feels all of them.

The path
of a video

Eight steps, from the song to the final cut. In every one, the machine offers and you decide. This is the path we walk in class.

  1. 01

    The song

    ten takes of the same song.

    the one that works when you hear it walking down the street.

  2. 02

    The board

    the beat, the words, the parts.

    what happens in every second, before spending a cent.

  3. 03

    The look

    any face, any place.

    one face and one world, the same in every shot.

  4. 04

    The pictures

    hundreds of stills.

    the one.

  5. 05

    The shots

    a picture that moves.

    where it starts, where it cuts and what comes next.

  6. 06

    The cut

    every clip on its beat.

    the edit, by hand.

  7. 07

    The words

    the lyrics, on time.

    a style that belongs to this song and no other.

  8. 08

    The review

    one more version.

    every note on its exact second, then one last pass.

How I
teach it

Not a list of prompts. You watch the decisions being made, then you make your own.

01

On a real video

I open one of my videos and walk you through every decision, including the takes that didn't make it and why.

02

On your video

Every session ends with a piece of your own video. You leave with something made, not just notes.

03

One step at a time

Slow on purpose: one step per session, done properly. No ten-minute hacks.

04

You keep the method

My way of working, set up in your own AI assistant, so it comes with you to the next video.

🔒 PrivateThe full method is shown in class

I can't code. I built my own studio by talking to machines: one place where every shot, every version and every decision lives. Tools, workflow and recipes: not on this page. They're in the class.
