I just went live to share a first look at a new resource I’m building for AIFCA members: the AI Filmmaker’s Consistency Red Book. It will break down practical workflows for preventing character, voice, and visual-style drift in AI films, based on real tests—not theory. I’ve already completed a five-clip character consistency experiment with Maya, and the results are very encouraging. Watch the video for the announcement and what’s coming next.

If you joined this community to find paid work as an AI video creator, your first priority should be setting up your profile on the AI Filmmakers Directory. Go to https://aifilmmakersdirectory.com and click Add New AI Video Business. Do it as soon as possible. Demand is growing fast across agencies, studios, SaaS companies, brands, production companies, and creator-led businesses. But clients cannot hire you if they cannot find you—or quickly understand why you are the right person for their project. A strong Directory profile gives you three major advantages: 1. Get discovered by active buyers The Directory is built for companies specifically searching for AI video talent. You are not competing for attention in a crowded feed. You are placing your work where buyers are already looking. 2. Help clients properly evaluate you A Pro Profile gives clients and AI search agents a deeper understanding of your specialties, experience, services, portfolio, tools, and creative approach. The easier you are to understand and evaluate, the easier you are to recommend and hire. 3. Increase your chances of being shortlisted When I am asked to recommend an AI filmmaker or assemble a project team, the Directory is one of the first places I look. Pro Profiles provide much more information, making it easier to match creators with the right opportunities and present them professionally to potential clients. A basic profile gets you listed. A strong Pro Profile helps you get found, understood, shortlisted, and recommended. The Pro plan is still available at its low founder pricing, but that price will increase as the Directory grows. So, two things to do this week: First: Create or upgrade your Directory profile. Show your strongest work and clearly explain your skills, services, creative strengths, and ideal projects. Second: Explore the free Classroom modules designed to strengthen your personal brand, improve how you present your work, and make you a more attractive and hireable AI filmmaker.

After some reflection, I realized the original 90-day commitment was a little too daunting — for me and probably for you too. So I changed my approach. I've packed everything into a focused 4-week course that will allow anyone to quickly learn how to deliver problem-solving AI videos at scale — fast, and to a large number of clients. I'm the founder of AI Filmmakers Directory, and I've spent the last 30 years as a TV and freelance producer/director. I've made videos that clients paid serious money for, long before "AI video" was a phrase anyone used. Now I've spent months in conversations with the people making real money with AI video right now — and I've seen exactly who's winning, who's stuck, and what separates the two. Here's the conclusion I couldn't ignore: there's no reason — zero — why anyone in this space with basic skills and real hunger shouldn't be building toward $20K a month making AI videos for clients. The tools are here. The demand is real. Businesses are spending money on this right now. So what's the problem? It's not a skills problem. It's a business problem. Most AI video creators know how to make videos. Very few know how to streamline their workflows to produce fast — and even fewer know how to package, price, and sell that work like a business. That gap — that's exactly what this Accelerator is built to close. I'm not figuring this out alongside you — I'm teaching you what I already know: three decades of producing and directing real work, combined with the newest AI production tools that let you do in hours what used to take a full crew and a week. I'll show you how to use those tools to streamline and speed up production dramatically, and how to turn that speed into a real, profitable business. The goal: $20K/month — and the Accelerator is built to get you there in 4 weeks. It's evergreen, so you start when you're ready and move at your pace. What you'll actually learn: How to pick the one vertical that fits you and build a clear, sellable offer around it — not "I make AI videos," but a specific, results-driven promise a real business will pay for. How to produce AI video clients actually want using today's tools, and how to use the latest AI production tools to streamline and speed up your entire workflow. How to price and package your work like a business instead of a side hobby. How to find and reach prospects with outreach that books calls, how to run a sales conversation and close without feeling salesy, how to deliver and keep clients on retainer, and how to build a repeatable pipeline so the work compounds month over month.

Some of you are still in the learning and exploration phase — getting comfortable with the tools, finding your style, figuring out your niche. That’s completely fine. This community exists for that journey too. But some of you have been at this for a while. You’ve put in the hours.You know what you can do.You’re not waiting to get better — you’re waiting for the right opportunity to show up. This post is for you. I’ve decided to open participation in the very first official AI Filmmakers Directory promotional video to all AIFD members — including members under the Free plan. If selected, we’ll feature one of your clips along with your name and specialty/niche. But there’s one important prerequisite: You need to join this free Skool community — AI Filmmakers Career Agents — and go through the module:“Premium Profile That Converts.” Why? Because one of the biggest breakthroughs for AI creators is learning how to define themselves clearly in the marketplace. Not just:“AI filmmaker.” But:• AI Video Creator for SaaS• Residential Real Estate AI Filmmaker• Previs AI Video Creator• AI Ads Creator for DTC Brands• AI Music Video Director, etc. That clear identity changes everything. It helps clients understand you.It helps AI systems understand you.And it helps opportunities find you. Here’s the new part: If you go through the module and DM me that you want us to feature your clip in the promotional video, we’ll give you FREE FOR LIFE access to the AIFD Premium plan. No catch. Just me putting my energy where this community’s mission is. It sends a signal to the Universe that you’re serious.And it sends a signal to me personally that you’re ready to move. So — who’s in? 👇
