Make the film you can see in your head.
I’m Blake Ridder, an award-winning director with 5 feature films, and over 77 short films.
I use AI in real movies. I’ll show you how I combine real footage, performances and camera craft with AI to build worlds and finish scenes.
I start with the feeling. What should the audience feel? Then we work out what to shoot, what to generate and how to make the cut believable.
You’ll learn to:
🎬 Previsualise scenes and plan shots before you shoot
🎥 Blend real footage with AI worlds, match light and perspective, and keep characters consistent
🎞️ Direct camera movement, test prompts and finish with sound and music
💼 Price client work, explore Higgsfield opportunities and brand deals, save production costs and plan distribution
Includes scene workflows, video examples, workbooks, weekly challenges and a community to share work and get feedback.
Bring your ambition. Let’s make the first shot.
