AI Creative Lab / Dubai

AI-Assisted Video Production for Corporate Systems.

Human-led projects showing where automation, generative media and AI presenters can support production while review, accuracy, taste and approval stay with people.

Eight vertical product ads I created, combining presenter-led storytelling and product demonstrations.
