    What I do

    Three parts of the job I own end to end on every spot, from the first prompt to the final export.

    01

    Prompting & Direction

    Directing the models, not just prompting them. I build the shot, iterate across tools, and push until the look, motion, and product all read on-brand.

    • Shot design & references
    • Prompting: Veo, Kling, Sora
    • Stills & style: Midjourney
    • Product & character consistency
    02

    Editing & Finishing

    Where the AI tell gets removed. I cut for pacing, grade, design the sound, and clean up frame by frame until it plays like a real commercial.

    • Edit & pacing: Resolve
    • Color grade
    • Roto & relight: Beeble, AE
    • Cleanup & compositing
    03

    Tool R&D

    The stack changes every month. I test new models as they drop, benchmark them on real briefs, and fold whatever is production-ready into the pipeline.

    • New model evaluation
    • Upscaling: Magnific
    • Prompt libraries
    • Pipeline & cost tuning
    About

    AI commercials that hold up next to real film.

    I'm Serge Grushin, a producer and director working entirely in AI video. Inside an AI commercial studio I take spots from the first prompt to the final export: directing the models, then editing, grading, and cleaning up by hand until the AI tell is gone.

    I care most about the last ten percent, the part that separates a real commercial from an obvious generation. It's slower, it's manual, and it's the whole point.
