AI video generation, end to end. I run a UGC pipeline that ships hundreds of reels a month from one consistent character, and cinematic launch films for crypto and AI products. Engineer first, so the pipeline is built, not bought.
Selected work. The films first, everything else below them.

Bellerophon I: The Golden Bridle
Three kinds of video. I run all three in house, on one pipeline.
Creative direction
I am Ishan Lakhwani, an engineer turned director. I build AI video pipelines for crypto and AI products most video people cannot explain and most explainers cannot film.
Seven years shipping software as an engineer: Solana protocols, DeFi, a consumer app past ten million users. That is why the pipeline is code, not clicking. One anchored character holds identity across hundreds of generations, hooks are written against measured data rather than taste, and every clip is QC gated before it ships. The craft stops the scroll and the story stays technically true.
The stack. Model choice is a craft decision, not a subscription.

Stills and audio
Pipeline
No single model wins every shot. Character consistency, physics, text rendering and motion each break differently, so the right answer is knowing which model to reach for and how to chain them. That judgement is the work.
Priced for how fast you ship. Volume UGC, or one film that has to land.
$2.50 a video. One character, hooks rotated across the run.
- 400 finished 9:16 reels a month, captions burnt in
- One anchored character, identity consistent across the run
- Hooks written and scored before anything is generated
- Every clip QC gated, delivered ready to schedule
Why volume
Virality is a numbers game, and I have seen it closely.
Across 36,289 measured posts the median got 464 views while the top 1% took 63.5% of all views. Roughly 3.4% cross 10k and 0.03% cross a million. You cannot pick the winner in advance, so the only strategy that works is enough shots on goal to catch the tail, then reading which hook did it and making more of that.
