AI training that doesn't suck.

Six sessions on the real stack — not last year's demos. 50% learning, 50% laughing, 100% hands-on. By the end, your team can ship a model, render a video, and — the part nobody teaches — know when not to use AI at all.

FORMAT
In-person + remote
SESSIONS
6 core + 4 advanced
DURATION
~10 hours core
COHORT
4–12 people

/ BUILT FOR

Working professionals — directors, designers, editors, producers — who already ship creative work and want to integrate generative AI into a real, deadline-bound pipeline.

You don't need to be technical. You need to be curious, somewhat skeptical, and willing to make the bad first draft.

/ WHAT YOU LEAVE WITH

  • A working AI image pipeline integrated into your existing stack
  • One custom-trained LoRA in your studio's style
  • Practical literacy on video models — Seedance, Veo, Kling, Wan, LTX
  • An honest map of what to use, what to skip, and why
  • A finished piece made with everything above

Six sessions, in order.

Foundations through hands-on production, ending in a shipped piece. Each session builds on the last. Every new concept anchors to something your team already knows — Photoshop, After Effects, Premiere. Full session-by-session breakdown in the PDF.
01 / 06
GROUNDING — The landscape, honestly mapped
Where this technology actually is — and where the marketing departments would like you to think it is. Vocabulary, model families, and the studio-level decisions you'll be making across the next six weeks.
FOUNDATION
02 / 06
TOOLS — Picking the right tool, hardware reality, IP basics
A decision framework for choosing models. What runs locally, what runs in the cloud, what costs what. The IP basics every working creative needs before shipping a single AI-assisted frame.
FOUNDATION
03 / 06
IMAGE — Prompting, editing, consistency that scales
Hands-on with Midjourney, Flux, Nano Banana Pro, Seedream, Qwen-Edit. Translating Photoshop muscle memory into a new vocabulary. Where AI saves hours and where it eats your day.
WORKSHOP
04 / 06
VIDEO PT. 1 — Single shots: i2v, start frames, model personalities
The video model stack — Runway, Sora, Veo, Kling, Hailuo. How to think about i2v vs t2v, model personalities, the craft of the start frame, and the surprising places these models break.
WORKSHOP
05 / 06
VIDEO PT. 2 — Stitching shots: sequences, consistency, editing handoff
Going from one good shot to a finished sequence. Character and style consistency across shots, transitions that don't betray the pipeline, and how to hand the result to an editor without breaking everything.
WORKSHOP
06 / 06
ADVANCED — V2V, camera control, hybrid workflows
The harder moves. Video-to-video transformations, explicit camera control, and hybrid workflows that mix traditional pipelines with AI generation. The end of the core program — and the start of the advanced track if you want it.
WORKSHOP

Going deeper.

Four optional sessions for studios going deeper into custom training and self-hosted production. Adds ~8 hours. Recommended if your team will own the pipeline long-term.
07 / 10
COMFYUI FOUNDATIONS — The control layer. Including no-GPU paths.
ComfyUI from scratch — including hosted options like ComfyCloud and Floyo so the team can start without buying hardware. Node graphs, the mental model, and the first useful workflows.
ADVANCED
08 / 10
PRODUCTION COMFYUI — Real pipelines. Batching, real scale
Production-grade ComfyUI workflows. Open-weight video pipelines (Wan, LTX), batching strategies, API integrations, and how to stop hand-crafting every frame.
ADVANCED
09 / 10
MODEL TRAINING — LoRAs for your studio's IP and brand consistency
Custom LoRA training for client IP, brand looks, character consistency. We train one together in your studio's style. You leave with a working, reusable model that's actually yours.
ADVANCED
10 / 10
COMMERCIAL WORK — IP, ethics, and shipping it.
The legal-and-real talk. Practical IP checklists, the ethics conversations clients now expect, and what shipping commercial AI work actually looks like in 2026 — with real scenarios, not hypotheticals.
ADVANCED

The advanced track is its own conversation. Most studios start with the core six and add advanced sessions later — once they know what they actually need.

The current stack, honestly assessed.

This list updates every quarter — because the landscape does. You'll leave knowing which to use, which to skip, and which to keep an eye on.
