AI in Production: Creating More with Less.

Many Locations, One Solution.

In our brand film, one of the characters is a diver.
To demonstrate location flexibility in this cutdown, we moved our diver from the open ocean into a swimming pool for training.

AI helps overcome complex production challenges - like simulating underwater shoots - while supporting storytelling, character development, and giving your brands the
ability to showcase many of their strengths.

Once the AI character is signed off, environments can be swapped seamlessly, unlocking safe, efficient, and cost-effective creative possibilities that would be difficult or expensive to achieve in traditional production.

AI Video Production - Smarter Campaign Cutdowns for Global Markets

It’s not just about creating assets with the latest tools, it’s about understanding advertising, audiences, and the markets they move in. With the right planning, a single campaign can be transformed into multiple message, each tailored to specific genres and audiences.

From one main reel, we shaped several motivational cutdowns. This one is designed for fitness and running brands. With unique regional voiceovers and language versions, campaigns can connects across diverse geographies while maintaining one consistent brand message.

Strategic planning. Flexible creative. Global impact.

AI Stills Campaign: Never Lose Your Way — Creative Direction & Production Solutions for Integrated Advertising

For our recent creative test, we set out to show how AI-generated stills can go beyond stand-alone images and form the foundation of a full campaign.

These visuals were originally created for our fitness awareness brand film reel, Never Lose Your Way. By designing the stills with motion in mind, we demonstrated how easily they can evolve into an integrated campaign, stretching across brand film, photography, and digital content.

The strength of this approach lies in combining our advertising and production expertise, together with high-end AI visuals and post-production. We’re able to maximise content variety from a single creative source. The result is a more agile, scalable, and cost-effective way for brands to create campaigns that work across platforms.

This is just the start of our exploration into how AI-driven production can expand creative possibilities while staying true to brand storytelling.

N26 Online Bank - The Month of N.

The Month of N is the biggest project the Creative Studio at N26 executed since their launch in Germany in 2015. The project involved rolling out daily activations through the month of November 2021.

We created a blend of actual in camera clips, digital assets, fun filters, merchandise and a grand prize at the end of the month. I managed the project and the creative production assets together with the in house creative director. The social clips were directed and shot by Roice Nel. I also oversaw the edits, which were created for YouTube and Instagram. Winner of 2 Silver Awards at the Deutscher Digital Awards!
