IS AI REALLY TAKING OUR JOBS?

Concept, edit, animation and sound design 

From an incredible, wide-reaching interview, I created a chaptered storyline in the edit so that the viewer would be compelled to watch till the very end (and not miss any of Judy’s incredible insights). 

I designed a hand-drawn flip-book animation style to deliberately go against the hyper-real animation style churned out by AI tools. There was something about Judy’s message (let’s not give these AI tools and their creators more power than they’re due) that made me want to “go back to basics”. Using a combination of AE and procreate I created a visual container that moved each chapter of the edit along. Aaaand I got to animate Elon Musk melting into a pile of coins, which was more rewarding than I could have imagined.
