AI AT SEQNCE

    We shoot it or we generate it. Your call.

    Muted

    The machine does the labour. The judgement stays ours.

    The idea, the taste and the sign-off stay with people. Everything under that now runs faster and in more versions than before, and the same budget ends up buying a lot more material. Rather than promise it, we show it: first the system we built for pre-production, then whichever of the two paths the project takes.

    PRE-PRODUCTION · THE SYSTEM

    We built our own system.

    SEQNCE HQ took months to build and it gets better most weeks. Every client and every project has its own memory inside it: decisions, knowledge, assets and everything that already happened, in one place. That feeds most of the workflows a production runs through.

    THE FORK

    From here, the project decides.

    Up to here every project runs the same way, through the system. After that a project takes one path or the other, never both.

    PATH A – HYBRID

    Shot on camera, finished with AI.

    The camera stays the foundation. Below is one frame from a real shoot. Step through it and see what post does with it.

    01

    Same shoot. Different weather.

    Sun turns into storm, grey turns into blue. The weather gets set afterwards, so nobody waits on the sky.

    02

    Same take. Different place.

    The same take in a different place. The background is replaced, and the person and the action in front of it stay exactly as filmed.

    03

    Same set. Different product.

    We swap the product inside footage that already exists. One spot plus ten products gives you ten ads. And when a rebrand lands, we swap the pack instead of binning last year's film.

    The light gets made in post.

    Look and light are built after the shoot. Day becomes evening, hard light goes soft, and a flat plate gets its cinema look without anyone going back out to shoot it.

    EveningSame take, relit to night: blue windows, warm practicals.
    05

    One take, every language.

    Switzerland is four languages, which makes it four markets. We produce one master, German for example, then translate the voice and lip-sync the person on screen into French, Italian and English, all on the footage that already exists. One shoot, every market.

    06

    Things that were never on set.

    Elements that were never on set get composited into the real frame. Objects come in or out, without a greenscreen and without a reshoot.

    07

    One master. Every format.

    A single take, refit for every channel. No bars, no stretching and no second shoot.

    This is how it left the camera. The only real frame boundary there is.

    PATH B – FULL AI

    Full AI. Nothing shot.

    No set and no camera. One briefing becomes two hundred ads, with all the hooks, languages and formats tested at the same time, and only the winners get scaled.

    Overseeding

    One briefing. Two hundred ads.

    Same idea, 200 variants across hook, colour, format and language. An extra execution costs nothing, so we make more of them.

    Test

    The market picks the winner.

    Hooks, presenters and languages run against each other at once, as stills and as video. Within 72 hours the numbers say which one works.

    Selection

    The losers die in the test.

    195 executions fall away before they ever touch a media budget.

    Scaling

    Scale the one that won.

    The winning hook then travels lip-synced into every language, without a reshoot.

    GOVERNANCE

    The rules.

    Every AI output passes a human quality gate before it leaves the building.

    01Human quality gate
    No frame goes out before a person has seen it, judged it and signed it off. Models hallucinate, and the sign-off is what catches it.
    02Rights
    Every delivered asset is licensed for the agreed channels and terms, including the AI-generated parts. You get it in writing.
    03Data
    Client material is never used to train public models. Generation runs on commercial licences, and nothing is scraped from grey areas.
    04People
    Voices and faces are cloned or synthesized only with documented consent. Synthetic people are always disclosed.
    05Disclosure
    We recommend the right AI labelling per platform and deliver it with the assets on request.
    NO AI

    When AI is the wrong tool.

    In these cases we shoot it.

    01Real testimonials
    If a real person is meant to build trust, they belong in front of the camera.
    02Live events
    A festival, a moment that happens exactly once. You shoot that.
    03Documentary and reality
    Documentary lives on everything being real. Generated material has no place in it.
