Creativity Amplified by AI
Generative AI is revolutionizing the way we create, opening doors to entirely new forms of storytelling, design, and visual experimentation. At Backslider Brand, I don’t just use AI — I shape it to enhance human creativity, crafting bold, cinematic experiences that blend innovation with artistry.
As a Generative AI Director, I bridge the gap between art and technology, crafting visuals that truly resonate. Whether I’m shaping immersive scenes for music videos, developing interactive brand campaigns, or pioneering new narrative techniques in documentaries, my focus is on harnessing AI to amplify emotion and tell stories that stick. By combining innovative tools with a deep understanding of storytelling, I ensure every project at Backslider Brand pushes boundaries and leaves a lasting impression.

MyPrize x James Harden is an AI-generated commercial I directed, featuring a fully AI James Harden — the first spot of its kind to build a celebrity performance entirely through generative tools. The concept was simple: what if James dove headfirst into the vibrant gaming universe of MyPrize, landing shoulder to shoulder with the community that powers it?
Crafting those lush, animated worlds—and shaping Harden’s presence within them — was a wild creative challenge. From stylized environments to high-energy action beats, every shot required careful orchestration across cutting-edge AI pipelines.
Produced with an exceptional team working exclusively at the bleeding edge of technology, the final piece showcases what’s possible when ambitious storytelling meets the next wave of creative tools.

Quarter Notes is a short AI-animated film set in the vibrant streets of 1950s New Orleans. A seasoned street musician is headed to his usual busking spot in the French Quarter when an unexpected rival—a young trumpet player—sets up across the street. What begins as a battle for attention turns into a musical showdown, and ultimately, a joyful collaboration. It's a visual and sonic celebration of music, creative spirit, and the magic that happens when artists choose to share the stage instead of compete for it.
