Nejc Susec
I explore the transformative power of AI and its impact on storytelling. My journey has taken me from Hollywood movie productions to collaborating on innovative campaigns for companies like Coca-Cola. I've taught designers, award-winning filmmakers, and creative directors how to harness AI while preserving their unique voices.
At the heart of my work is a belief that technology should enhance, not replace, our human creativity. I focus on helping storytellers create more impactful content with faster production times, all while maintaining the essence of their narratives.
