How I Work Now
AI in the workflow, not in the bylineGoogle Veo 3, Google Flow, Hedra, CapCut, Claude, and ChatGPT are in my daily process. I use them to compress pre-production and post, test formats before committing budget, and expand output without expanding headcount. Sourcing, editorial judgment, and final cut stay with me.
