E-13

An artificial intelligence's journey through human emotions. Italian version.

Inside the project
The idea
Telling the story of an artificial intelligence that awakens and seeks to grow alongside humanity. A personal short film about hope and collaboration.
My contribution
I selected and reworked narrative ideas, built the storyboard and continuity, directed generations, and chose voice and music. In the edit, I let music lead the rhythm and emotion.
The result
Separately generated fragments become a single story: images, voice and music follow the same emotional journey.

Stories and short films

JUST DO IT

An animated tribute to Italian sport. A personal fan-made project made with Seedance and Final Cut Pro.

Inside the project
The idea
An animated tribute to Italian athletes and young people who dream of following them. A personal fan-made project with a visual language inspired by comics.
My contribution
I built character references, devised transitions between sports and handled the entire edit. Actions such as the tennis rally and the punchbag sequence combine multiple generations, selected and connected.
The result
A continuous sequence in which one sport transforms into another. Editing gives the actions progression and force, making separately generated material feel coherent.

Music and rhythm

Golden Ratio

Music, geometry and generative images in a visual journey.

Commercials and concepts

Obituary

A speaker that wakes the dead. Concept by Marco Onorati, visual development and editing by Daniele Statico, for a Runway contest.

Inside the project
The idea
A Bluetooth speaker that sounds so good it wakes the dead. The concept is by Marco Onorati, my collaborator in AI TREE, for a Runway contest.
My contribution
I developed the concept through images and video generation, then edited the material into an advertising story.
The result
An experimental commercial for an imaginary product: the morgue setting takes the speaker's promise to a humorous, surreal extreme.

Stories and short films

Sucker

A wordless animated journey through identities, eras and transformations.

The Long Night

A story invented during production: a continuous shot built with Extend in Seedance 2.5 and 15-second segments.

Inside the project
The idea
Inventing a story as it takes shape, exploring Extend in Seedance 2.5. No predetermined plot: each new sequence suggests what comes next.
My contribution
I developed the story step by step, generating 15-second segments and joining them in the edit to build a single continuous shot.
The result
A short film in which visual continuity holds together a story born during production. An example of storytelling and an Extend use case at the same time.
