Just wanted to share a quick update on something exciting happening in my career. Starting today, I'm officially stepping into the role of an AI filmmaker. I've been a Game Writer and Narrative Designer for a while now — recently, most of my energy has gone into building Aarda AI, the interactive storytelling platform I created with my colleague Kayna Oliveira. I'll definitely keep pushing that forward, but I'm also dedicating more time to creating my own original AI-powered dramas. I'm already in production on two series. One is "Maid Resort" — a fun, silly, over-the-top anime with plenty of spicy moments that's been doing pretty well on Instagram and has already built a small group of super fans. Every good project starts off as a joke, right? I also released a family drama in French on YouTube. I'm not 100% satisfied with it yet, but I'm actively working on improving it. Over the next few months, I'll be polishing several original stories I've been developing for years. My goal is to put 4–5 IPs into production as short-form dramas and release them across YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. Right now I'm still mostly using Grok Imagine, which is fantastic for getting started and delivers impressive results. That said, I'm exploring better tools to bring more life and emotion to the characters — platforms like Higgsfield, Freepik, or short drama-specific ones like Plot Party or Pippit. What I love most about this AI journey is that I don't need funding or a producer to get started. I can just create and share my stories directly. The real challenge though, will be finding and growing the audience. As someone wisely said on this network, "Audience as distribution is the real moat." I've been a storyteller my whole life. For nearly 15 years, I had the privilege of working as a Writer and Narrative Designer on games, including some major IPs and hit mobile games that reached HUGE audiences. Now, for the first time, I have the tools to bring all the stories I've been carrying in my heart to life and connect directly with people who might love them. My vision? Build my own universe of IPs — my own Marvel, my own Netflix — and deliver them as compelling short dramas and interactive games, on Aarda AI but also others. I'm genuinely excited about this new chapter and plan to give it everything I've got. Next video, I'll share more about the projects I'm developing (some are already playable as story games on aarda.ai if you want to check them out). If you're working in AI filmmaking, short-form drama platforms, or have interesting workflows and tools, I'd love to connect. I'm very open to conversations and collaborations. Thanks for reading, and I’ll keep you posted!
