My first episode is up!
Notes From the Director: What Are ICM Folder Factories? I've been building what I call ICM Folder Factories, using AI to organize and execute actual creative production workflows. In this episode, I introduce the concept and explain how I'm approaching these systems from the perspective of a working artist, filmmaker, and creative director. Rather than treating AI as something that simply generates content, I'm interested in teaching it how to follow established production processes. And I'm putting that idea to work on this very video series. The goal is to build a production system that can take my recordings through editing, graphics, music, B-roll, and eventually publishing, while I retain creative control. It's a work in progress, and I'll be sharing the successes, failures, and improvements along the way. I'd love some feedback from the community, particularly from anyone experimenting with similar workflows. Watch the episode here: https://youtu.be/GoYl3SLLbxg Stop prompting. Start directing.

WELCOME TO THE PRODUCTION OFFICE
This is not a place to collect another course. It is a place to move a film forward. Start here: 1. Introduce yourself and name the project you are trying to make. 2. Follow the short **Start Here** path so you understand how the production office works. 3. Open **Factory Zero** and build your first Project Greenlight Brief. 4. Share the one decision the brief made impossible to ignore. Your first win is not more inspiration. It is one useful professional document and one important decision brought into focus. When you are ready, choose the next production factory your film needs. Each one is a working department you can modify, use again, and eventually connect to the rest of your production company. Bring the project. Let's get to work.

Looking for Long-Term Partners to Build and Grow Together
Hey everyone! Hope you're all doing well. I'm looking to connect with people based in the United States or Europe who are interested in building something profitable together over the long term. A lot of people want to start something on their own but get held back by a lack of technical skills or experience. I’m exploring a different kind of partnership where we can combine our strengths and work toward a shared goal. There’s no upfront investment required, and you don’t need advanced technical skills or previous experience. What matters most is being reliable, confident, willing to learn, and committed to following through. If this sounds interesting to you, feel free to reach out. I’d be happy to talk more and see if there’s a good fit for us to work together. Please send a DM or Whatsapp: +81 80-1504-7222

From Recording to YouTube Using My ICM Folder Factories
I’m putting my own production workflow to the test. I’m recording a new series of Notes From the Director videos where I demonstrate how my ICM Folder Factories work. But here’s the interesting part: I’m using those same factories to produce the videos themselves. The goal is pretty simple. I want to sit down, turn on my camera, share my screen, and talk about something I’m working on. Then let the factories handle the production process: - Organize the camera and screen recordings. - Assemble and edit the footage in Adobe Premiere. - Add branded graphics, titles, and transitions. - Incorporate music and relevant B-roll. - Prepare the finished video for YouTube. - Generate descriptions, thumbnails, and supporting content. - Upload the finished episode to my channel. The screenshots show an early rough assembly in Premiere. We’re building and testing the workflow as we go. The objective isn’t to remove the artist from the process. It’s to remove the repetitive production work. I’ve spent decades directing, editing, and producing content. I know how to do all these things. But I don’t need to personally perform every mechanical task anymore. I’d rather spend that time creating the next thing. And there’s something wonderfully circular about using the very system I’m teaching to produce the lessons about that system. I’ll share more as we develop the workflow, including what works, what breaks, and what still needs a human making the decisions. Stop prompting. Start directing. — Racon Gunner #NotesFromTheDirector #ICMFolderFactories #AIFilmmaking
