Been a while! Built a new kind of portfolio using Claude Code and full Three.js. Put a ton of time, craft, and inspiration into this one. Launching Monday. Is it a teaser, or a showreel..? maybe both! Can't wait to share it with you!

I wanted to test Fable 5.2 on something that felt impossible for me to code: complex behaviours for a creature. The starting point: a Three.js prototype. A little robotic biped living its own life, animated entirely by code. A lot of movement research went into it: getting it to walk, then run, then gallop without falling over, feet that actually plant on the ground, a head and neck that go looking for things, simulating hundreds of lives to see where it trips and fixing that. Alongside, a few reference sketches and visual research. Then I decided to try it in Unreal 5.8 and to make it controllable. No pre-recorded animation; everything is computed. All done in 2 days. Sound design is bad and world a bit random. The video is me playing around with my PS5 controller.

Hey, my turn to share something I built: SBLayout, a storyboard layout tool. I started it a year ago because renumbering panels by hand was driving me insane. Move a panel, change the order, redo a layout… anyone who lays out boards knows what I'm talking about. So I made our own. It's fluid and genuinely pleasant to use, and Quentin and I now use it on every project we direct. It's become part of our creative process. It's also been a real learning curve for me. I started coding it with ChatGPT, riding the vibe coding wave, and picked up a ton along the way. Today I build it with Claude Code: Fable 5.1 for the important decisions, Opus 5 to keep the work moving.

Directed this with Quentin before summer youtube.com/watch?v=Deh9HEHC… Glazer's Jamiroquai video is one of the most iconic ever made, so making a new one was intimidating. Shot in London with Jay Kay: nine rooms on stage, a practical moving floor, (almost) no CGI.
