Lookbook
Every major model release tracked and tested. New models benchmarked and folded into my production workflow — the pipeline I run today is better than the one I ran last week.
Multi-model routing
Different best-in-class models handle generation, motion, upscale, and composite. Routed per task, not one-tool-fits-all.
Temporal coherence
Frame-to-frame consistency engineered in. Motion guidance, seed locking, and inter-frame blending keep subjects stable across sequences.
Structural prompting
Not just typing words into a box. Layered prompt architectures with weighted conditioning, negative constraints, and token-level control — built to hold a brand's voice across a whole campaign.
Upscale & composite
Raw generation is the starting point. Multi-pass upscaling, colour grading, and compositing finish every asset to broadcast spec.

Deliver
Upscaled, graded, cut
An idea, a script, a single reference. Whatever exists, that's the starting point — then it becomes a visual system before anything gets made.
Custom pipeline per brief. Models routed per task, layered prompt architecture, and human-gated review at every pass until it's right.
Upscaled, graded and composited to spec, then cut for every platform it needs to live on. Delivered ready to post.
Palette, references and art direction locked before a single frame is generated. The brief becomes a visual system.
The eye behind the direction. Shot, cut and produced — zero AI.
Realtime & Immersive
Cinematic sequences directed in real-time — virtual camera and motion capture built through Unreal and Unity, with the lighting, animation and immersive media that spans game design, cinematics, AR and VR. Realtime studio production, from mocap floor to final frame.
Direction & Content
A decade of filmmaking — directing, producing and editing music videos, fashion films and brand documentaries. Alongside channel management and content strategy: building, running and growing audience-facing content pipelines end to end.

I'm Vorn Smith. Direction is the through-line: from a decade behind the camera, through virtual production and games, to generative AI. The tools change; the eye doesn't.
