I’m proud to announce that Rabbit Hole, a new creator-driven variety series for teens, will launch on Disney+ and Hulu this summer.

Produced by pocket.watch, Rabbit Hole brings together digital creators, comedy, animation, music, gaming, and sketch-driven entertainment in a format designed for a new generation of viewers, something that has been described as an “SNL for teenagers.”

Between 2025 and 2026, I worked on the series as one of the key AI animators, helping develop video sketches and animated sequences for the show. My role focused on bringing advanced AI animation workflows into the production process, supporting a fast-moving creative pipeline while maintaining a high level of visual quality, timing, humor, and character performance.

The show is the brainchild of Albie Hecht, former President of Nickelodeon Entertainment and Chief Content Officer at pocket.watch, whose career has helped shape some of the most influential youth entertainment of the past several decades. I worked on the show under the supervision of senior animator Kenny Janeski, contributing to a production that sits at the intersection of traditional entertainment, creator culture, and next-generation AI-assisted animation.

I’m incredibly proud of the work I contributed to Rabbit Hole and the quality of the final animations and video sketches. It’s exciting to see this project move from production into the world, and especially meaningful to see it launch through a major streaming platform like Hulu.

More updates coming soon as the premiere approaches.

I was glad to return to the Fashion Institute of Technology this past February to give a guest lecture on the latest AI video workflows and node-based creative production tools.

The AI landscape continues to evolve at an incredible pace, so I focused on practical workflows for AI-driven video production, including tools such as ComfyUI, Weavy, and FLORA. I also walked students through specific video advertising workflows inside Weavy, which will soon relaunch as Figma Weave.

Many thanks to professors Christie Shin and C.J. Yeh for the invitation and for the opportunity to share my knowledge with such talented students. I always enjoy these conversations, and I look forward to future opportunities to contribute, teach, and exchange ideas with the next generation of creative talent.

Had an absolute blast leading a live workshop for the students at Curious Refuge.

I walked them through some of my recent Generative AI work in advertising and AI filmmaking, sharing real production workflows, what is working with client projects, and the lessons learned from testing these tools at full speed in live campaigns.

Curious Refuge is one of the leading names in AI filmmaking and AI education, so being invited to speak with their community is something I am genuinely proud of. The students came prepared with sharp, thoughtful questions. The discussion was as energising as any production room I have been in.

Looking forward to more lectures, experiments, and collaborations with the Curious Refuge team in the months ahead.

Honored to participate in the FIT Age of Creative Intelligence Hackathon as both a jury member and guest lecturer. I had the chance to lead a two-part workshop — The New AI Creative Arsenal: From Prompt to Production — where we explored the latest breakthroughs in GenAI video, imaging, and synthetic production tools released over the last six months. The ingenuity and creative use of AI from the students was truly impressive, particularly how they pushed these emerging tools into storytelling, branding, interactivity, and thoughtful social impact concepts.

Honored to share that “Vault Electric: Charging Ahead” has been recognized with the MAGICA AI Award for Best Animation in Advertising 2025. Grateful and proud of my team at Media Et Al, and the jury of the MAGICA Advertising Festival for this recognition. We’re proud of the craft behind this film.

Interview by James Larkin with our winning team in the Best Advertising category at the Venice AI Film Awards 2025 (Jack Goldenberg, Eric David, and Julio B. Soler)

Huge thanks to James Larkin for the thoughtful conversation and for spotlighting the creative process and techniques behind our winning project. It was a pleasure discussing the journey with Jack Goldenberg and Eric David, from concept to delivery, and how we merged storytelling, production craft, and advanced AI tools to bring the vision to life.

Our brand film "Vault Electric: Charging Ahead" has been officially selected for the 2025 Moonmax Film Festival in London! 🇬🇧✨

It’s an honor to see our AI-driven brand film included among such innovative and forward-thinking works at one of the world’s leading celebrations of technology-native cinema.

It was an honor to present my recent AI Film Award-winning ad for Reclaim Planet Earth, share my process, and walk through how I combined tools like Midjourney, Runway, Kling AI, and ElevenLabs to bring this animated PSA to life, from character design to voiceover to cinematic polish. The audience was sharp and curious, and the impressive work shared by fellow filmmakers was nothing short of inspiring (including Jidenna, Barney Miller, Bruno Lasevicius, Tiffani Lee, and others)

My AI brand film “Vault Electric: Charging Ahead” just won the Bronze Trophy in the AI Commercial Film Category at the 2025 Seoul International AI Film Festival 🏆 in Gangnam, Seoul.

Even more special, our second entry “YouCan the Toucan” received an Honorable Mention by the Jury. Two projects recognized in one festival! What an amazing validation of the work we’ve been pouring our hearts (and prompts) into.
