Hey all, I'm Lawrence (Larry) Jordan from California. I was a professional film & TV editor here in LaLa Land for 30+ years, and with luck and good timing, I became one of the first people to edit a movie digitally on a computer, maybe some of you have heard of called the Avid Media Composer. That experience got me hooked on tech, which led me to building websites around my area of expertise. In 2018, I launched a very niche site and course that's now put 2,000+ students through it across 40+ countries. The turbulence in the film industry has slowed that biz to a crawl, but about 18 months ago I started immersing myself in AI, and I've been officially obsessed ever since. I've been building all kinds of tools with AI but haven't sold anything yet. However, I'm developing a major SaaS platform for AI filmmaking that will be in beta Q1 2026. I also run a newsletter and free Skool community called AIography for anyone interested in AI filmmaking. I really dug Trevor's intro video and know I can learn a lot from him and his group. So check it out if your interested.

500 creators, one community. AIography is just getting started. 👀 We just hit another milestone — 500 members strong! 🙌A huge thank you to everyone who’s joined and contributed to making this such a special community. I know things have been a little quiet lately — that’s because I’ve been head-down, fully consumed with building Lumarka, our revolutionary new AI filmmaking/content creation app. 🎬🤖 But stay tuned! In the near future, I’ll be sharing some very cool things here, including exclusive sneak peeks of Lumarka before anyone else gets to see them. More soon — and thanks again for being part of this journey. 🚀

Adobe just announced Premiere Mobile, a new editing app that’s free, uncluttered, and they say, doesn’t feel like a toy. It’s got a multitrack timeline, 4K HDR editing, one-tap AI tools like Enhance Speech, plus Firefly features like turning text or even your own voice into sound effects. You can even transform images into video to fill gaps in your edit. Plus you can transfer your projects to the desktop app for finishing or final polish. As someone who’s spent decades cutting on pro systems, I find this move by Adobe really intriguing. CapCut has set the standard for mobile editing, and it makes me wonder if Adobe can put a dent in that firmly established base. From a “pro” editor’s perspective, the idea of cutting on a phone still feels like a big leap. But we’ve seen seismic shifts before in this industry, and it’ll be fascinating to see if Adobe can change the game here. 👉 Watch the full announcement video HERE

Hey Video Visionaries, I know a lot of you are exploring AI video tools and have been curious about Google’s Veo 3. Problem is, unless you’re on the Ultra plan (aka the “I have money to burn” 💸 tier), you’re stuck wondering what you can actually do on the more affordable $19.99 Pro plan. So I did the digging for you. 🕵️‍♂️ This doc breaks down exactly what is and isn’t possible to do with Veo 3 on the Pro tier — from video quality and generation limits to smart workarounds using the Flow tool. If you’re looking to stretch your creative muscle 💪 without stretching your wallet, this one’s for you. TL;DR 🎬 Veo 3 is a paradigm-shifting AI video model that has Hollywood shaking in its boots 😳 and AI filmmakers jumping for joy 🎉. But the full-featured "Ultra" version is locked behind a wallet-draining $250/month plan. The good news? You can do a lot with the $20/month Pro plan… if you know how. 😉 So I put together a deep-dive guide that shows you exactly what’s possible with Veo 3 on Pro, how to get the most out of it, and what the limitations are. Let me know what you think and SHARE what you discover or create with the community. We’d love to see it! 🚀

Google Introduces “Flow”: A New AI Creative Suite for Filmmakers, Musicians, and Visual Artists TL;DR Google just launched Flow, a new collaborative AI-first creative suite designed to help creators generate videos, images, and music—all powered by cutting-edge models like Veo and Imagen 3. Currently invite-only through Google Labs, Flow signals Google's big swing to unify generative tools into a storytelling platform for professionals. Key Takeaways - Flow = Google’s AI Studio: Think of Flow as Google’s version of Adobe Creative Cloud meets Runway. It combines video (Veo), image generation (Imagen 3), text, and music tools in one workspace. - Veo = Cinematic AI Video: Veo is Flow’s flagship model, generating high-fidelity, 1080p video from text prompts with dynamic camera moves and narrative coherence. - Imagen 3 = Google’s Best Text-to-Image Yet: A major leap in photorealism and visual detail, Imagen 3 rivals Midjourney and DALLE-3 with strong prompt accuracy and realism. - Built for Creators: Google’s partnership with Donald Glover’s creative studio, Gilga, underscores its intent to design Flow with artists—not just for them. - Available via Labs: Flow is currently invite-only through Google Labs (https://labs.google), with early access rolling out to select creators. Why It’s Important This isn’t just Google launching another AI model—this is Google building an entire AI-powered production environment. By integrating video, music, and images into a single interface, Flow has the potential to become a one-stop shop for ideation, pre-viz, and even final content creation. For filmmakers and visual storytellers, this marks a shift toward more unified workflows, where AI isn’t just a novelty—it’s embedded directly into the creative process. With Flow, Google is officially placing itself alongside (and possibly ahead of) Runway, Adobe, and OpenAI in the generative tool race. Read the whole announcement here
