What happens when corporate burnout hits a breaking point? 🤯
"POOF" is a satirical AI short film exploring the absurd chaos of a high-stress office populated entirely by anxious, furry monsters. As the pressure and paperwork pile up, the employees literally go POOF into clouds of smoke. 💨

This spot was created entirely using AI tools, from start to finish — no cameras, no actors, no shoot.
It began with a base image generated in ComfyUI, building out the visual concept of "Sleep Analysis" — a human face transformed into a data dashboard, with sleep metrics, heart rate, and apnea alerts layered directly onto the skin, as if technology could read the body in real time.
From that image, the motion and narrative were built in Seedance, animating each interaction: the tap on "Sleep Score" that triggers a purple-and-orange gradient of light, and the cut to "Sleep Apnea," where everything goes dark and a scanning light sweeps across the face as she sleeps.
The result is an exercise in AI-driven creative direction — showing how a product campaign, in this case built around the concept of wearable-free sleep tracking, can be fully constructed using generative models, from the first frame to the final animated piece, while maintaining visual consistency, cinematic lighting, and a clear narrative in just 15 seconds.
No humans were filmed. No locations were rented. 100% AI, from image to video.
This looks fantastic
One year apart. Same challenge. Very different AI.
This year: around +90% AI used in the production.
Last year: around 40% AI used in the production.
Which film works better — and why?

Going from 40% to 90% AI in a year is a huge jump. What changed most in your actual workflow, is it mostly generation now or still a lot of manual compositing on top?
Here is our submission for the Envato Human by Design Challenge
Instead of creating a fictional brief, we treated "Envato" as our client.
We asked ourselves one simple question:
What does it take to create a video for the Envato Challenge?
That led us to a slightly unconventional approach. Rather than making a behind-the-scenes film, we made the creative process become the story itself.
The entire video is built around breaking the fourth wall, a storytelling technique that only works when there's a human intentionally guiding the audience through it. It felt like the perfect way to interpret Human by Design, where the tools help create the work, but the idea, intent, and storytelling remain deeply human.
Using Envato's AI Voice, Images, Music, SFX and Motion Graphics, we brought that concept to life.
We hope you enjoy our take on Human by Design and the way we chose to break the fourth wall. A risk worth taken as the challenge as the Project itself.
