What We Do

Four ways we put the impossible on screen.

01

AI Film Production

From script to screen. Full films and documentaries produced with our AI-native pipeline — premium quality, delivered in a fraction of the time and budget of traditional production.

02

VFX & Virtual Sets

Photoreal environments, set extensions and worlds on demand. The look of a soundstage, without the soundstage.

03

Cinematic Trailers

Trailers and teasers that sell. High-impact cuts, delivered fast.

04

Virtual Production

Reshoots without reshooting. Change the location, era, weather, crowd or set of footage you’ve already shot — in post, without going back to set.

Showreel

Work.

A selection of AI-native frames — commercial, narrative and brand. Premium imagery, rendered in a fraction of the time.

How we work

An AI-native pipeline, end to end.

Proprietary technology, a human creative core. Four stages, one standard: would it pass on screen?

  1. 01

    Concept & previs

    Script, look-dev and previsualization — the film is designed before a single frame is generated.

  2. 02

    AI generation

    Our proprietary generative pipeline produces photoreal imagery at a fraction of the time and cost.

  3. 03

    Human craft

    Real actors, real voices and a senior craft team in the loop — grading and finish carry intent, not artifacts.

  4. 04

    Delivery, on schedule

    Broadcast-grade masters and trailers, delivered to spec — on time, on budget, ready for air.

The Lab

The Lab.

A proprietary, AI-native workflow — and a serious R&D practice. We run an integrated human + AI studio: real actors and real voices, augmented. And we are building a proprietary collaborative creation platform, currently in development.

Our Jerusalem studio is expanding this autumn — cutting-edge equipment and a larger team, to scale the work without compromising the craft.

Inside the Lab

Partnership

In partnership with Seedance— ByteDance’s leading AI video model.

The partnership gives us exclusive access to a model that isn’t available to the public in France — a generative edge we put to work for our productions.
