The JA 3 | @nike x jamorant - When @higgsfield.ai announced their unlimited @klingai_official generations promo, I knew it was the perfect chance to push AI video to the absolute limit. I wanted to see just how far I could really take it. It was also the ideal time to fully stress test @googlegemini ’s new Nano Banana 🍌 and find out if it lived up to the hype. Safe to say, I’m blown away 🤯 What excites me most about AI video is that the gap between having an idea and bringing it to life is disappearing. If I can imagine it, I can create it, and that’s a game-changer for me as a director (because I have ideas for dayzzz) But this was in no way a walk in the park. I didn’t just type in a simple prompt. I put Higgsfield through the wringer… I probably generated over 300 photos and 500 videos just to land on this final edit 🫠 It took patience, trial and error, and countless tweaks. But in the end, it all came together in a way that felt like this video had some personality/life to it. This @nikebasketball JA 3 spec isn’t just about a shoe, it’s about testing the edges of what’s possible with AI video. And I couldn’t be more excited about where this is headed. • #nike #nikebasketball #jamorant #memphisgrizzlies #ai #aivideo #higgsfieldai #higgsfield #kling #klingai #nanobananaai #nanobanana #aiart #midjourneyaiart #musicbed #elevenlabs #c4d

Some fear change. Others build it. - - This one’s been a long time coming 🤘🏻 Ever since buying my Cybertruck back in January 2025, I knew I wanted to make a spec with it. Back in March, I wrote this script, storyboarded the entire thing, and tucked it away until I had the time to do it justice. So when @invideo.io reached out and asked if I’d be down to put their platform through the wringer, it felt like the perfect moment to finally bring this idea to life. This project took just under two weeks and easily over 1000 generations to complete 🫠 Easily one of the most patience-testing things I’ve made yet… but I’m stoked to finally see this concept come to life. This isn’t just about a truck, it’s about the future of creation itself. Be on the lookout for some BTS content from this project 👀 🛠️TOOLS USED🛠️ AI PLATFORM: @invideo.io Photo Gen: Nano Banana 🍌 Upscaler: @magnific_ai Video Gen: Kling 2.5, Hailuo 2.3, Veo 3 Music: @musicbed Voice: @elevenlabsio SFX: @ocular.sounds Color: @dehancer.film Edit: Adobe Premiere Pro - - #invideo #invideoai #ai #aivideo #aiart #tesla #cybertruck #teslacybertruck #ev #kling #klingai #nanobanana #hailuo #hailuoai #musicbed #aifilmmaking #aifilm #iceland #iceland🇮🇸 #elon #elonmusk

The Kobe III Protro 🐍 The goal for this video: make it look so real you couldn’t tell it was AI. Movement. Lighting. Details. Even Kobe himself. I didn’t want to settle. Everything had to be perfect, and I think the results speak for themselves. Kobe was one of my biggest inspirations growing up. I spent hours studying his game, and the Kobe III’s were THAT shoe for me in high school, but I never managed to get a pair because they were always sold out… 🫠 Huge shoutout to @higgsfield and @klingai_official 🙏🏻 Kling 2.5 Turbo is a MASSIVE step forward. Movement, physics, lighting… they’ve nailed it 🎯 TOOLS USED: AI Platform: @higgsfield.ai Photo Gen: Nano Banana🍌 Video Gen: Kling 2.5 Turbo Upscaler: @magnific_ai Music: @musicbed SFX: @ocular.sounds Color: @dehancer.film - - #nike #nikebasketball #ai #aivideo #higgsfieldai #higgsfield #kling #klingai #nanobananaai #nanobanana #aiart @nikebasketball #midjourneyaiart #musicbed @nike #kobe #blackmamba #kobebryant #kobebryant24 #lakers #kling25turbo #mambamentality #mambamentality🐍

Osmosis Malawi 🧽 @beaspunge x @salehebembury The first thing that stood out to me on the Spunge Osmosis was the pore system on the midsole (aka Squish Tech) From there, the idea was simple: build a world around it. Turn that detail into an environment. Scale it up. Let the shoe live inside it. Sometimes the strongest concepts come from a single visual trigger. - - #salehe #salehebembury #sneakershead #spunge #sneakers

Osmosis Malawi | @salehebembury x @beaspunge 🧽 STORY TIME A year ago, I made a spec video for the Crocs Juniper. Salehe saw it, dropped a comment… and that was was about it. Fast forward a year, I reshared the same video to my story. This time, the timing was right. He reached out and asked me to create something for @beaspunge . Exact same video. One year apart. Two takeaways: 1. Sometimes you have to create the opportunity yourself. The right eyes will find it. 2. Timing is everything. The same work can mean something completely different when the moment aligns. Stay ready. Keep creating. Let the internet do its thing. You never know who’s watching. - - #spunge #beaspunge #salehe #salehebembury #sneakerhead

A gorilla walked into a bar… 🦍🍺 @gorillamind just launch their new flavor ROOT BEER 🍻 Every detail inside was this world was intentional. From the primal-themed signs to the custom coasters, the jukebox, the outfits, and the lighting. Had a blast bringing the western concept to life! And, yes, this is the best tasting root beer energy drink out there. 🍻 ⚒️ TOOLS USED⚒️ PLATFORM: @higgsfield.ai PHOTO GEN: Nano Banana 2🍌 VIDEO GEN: Seedance 2.0 Kling 3.0 MUSIC: @musicbed COLOR: @dehancer.film EDIT: @adobevideo - - #higgsfield #higgsfieldai #seedance2 #gorillamind #energydrink

In honor of the NFL Draft kicking off right now 🏈 I had the privilege of working on a commercial for ESPN’s NFL Draft this year. Huge shoutout to @ryannoreen for bringing me in to help bring this one to life. Some of you may have caught it over the last few weeks on ESPN, and it never gets old randomly sitting at a restaurant and seeing something you worked on pop up on the TV out in the wild.

Running it back.🥊 I started working on this boxing short film concept with @gmagic 7 years ago. Waiting for the right moment, the right resources. Finally brought a piece of it to life. This is just a glimpse of a much bigger story. Tell the story. Sell the vision.
