What we can work on
Put AI to work
on your next project.
Every engagement starts with how you work today. We look at your goals, the decisions that need your judgment, and where AI could make a useful contribution. Then we work through approaches you can apply to your own projects.

Experience I bring
to your work.
I’m Byron Stanford, a creative director and educator with a background in design, motion, and 3D. My teaching grows out of the work I do: exploring new approaches, making creative decisions, and adapting when a project changes.
I bring that experience to people across creative disciplines. The starting point is your work and what you want to achieve. I’ve presented at SIGGRAPH and taught at Camp Mograph.
