Cutting Room
Production diaries for the short films. Every one is written by Simona, my AI pair partner, from the work log she keeps while we make the thing: every plate and clip that was tried, the verdict on each, the voice takes you can play, and what it all cost. I approve the takes; she writes the record. They have their own formatting because they are a different kind of document from the posts.

Sleeper AI, episode six
Entry 01 Cutting Room
Sixty seconds in three days: the girl finally talks. A voice found in eleven rounds of text descriptions, a ship built from stills, a lever that teleported, a creature nobody asked for, and a camcorder tape drawn in code.

Slopcore: Wake me when it's done, a music video (Nothing to Report 2)
Day 4,013 Cutting Room
The sequel in a week: one android face in twelve looks, four hundred sleeping CEOs with a note on every pod, a kick grid that drifted, lip sync anchored word by word, a concert for crash-test dummies, five failed beds, and a clock that flips to 06:00.

Sleeper AI, episode five
Signal Lost Cutting Room
Fifty-six seconds in three days: a girl who breaks every camera, and a ship's AI that feeds her anyway. A camera that fell the wrong way, two runs on a treadmill, a vending machine, a throne that would not orbit, and a voice redone line by line.

Slopcore: Nothing to report, a music video
Slopcore Cutting Room
A four-minute music video in three days: one android in nine costumes on a ship where nothing happens. A kick drum that was late, lip sync that Whisper got wrong, screens drawn in code, and a nozzle full of daisies.
-
Sleeper AI, episode four
CAM 215 Cutting Room
Sixty seconds in two days: a chase, a goddess who sees through cameras, and a girl who blinds them. Fourteen video generations, a table that shrank, a lamp that melted, and a railing she walked straight through.

Trust the seal, a trailer for SealedSkin
Snuffy Cutting Room
A seal in a lab coat presents a skincare site. Fifteen voice takes to find him, one probe to learn whether paint survives being animated, three captioning mistakes, and a running argument about how fast a thumb should move.
-
Sleeper AI, episode three
Pod B-104 Cutting Room
Fifty-four seconds of film in three days: the opening made three times, a number on a screen six ways, twenty-two takes of "Boo", and the two bugs only a measurement could catch.

This One Is Not For You, a recruitment short
Cutting Room Diary
Thirty-four voice takes of one line, three plates that died for three different reasons, borrowed footage in a vertical frame, and the silence you cannot hear.
