You’ve probably heard, “you can only pick two”.
At Lucid State, you can have all three!

 

Concept Development

Ideate faster and get the “look” you are looking for.
  • Generate rapid visual concepts for mood boards or storyboards in minutes, not days.
  • Accelerated approvals: Clear visual alignment means fewer revisions and more time for innovation and storytelling.
  • Synthetic stand-ins: Using AI avatars or voice clones as placeholders while final casting decisions are made.
  • Camera blocking & previs: AI can simulate camera angles, lighting, and movement before anyone steps on set.
  • Sharper concepts, faster green lights, and a creative process that’s genuinely exploratory.

Production/Post Production

You’ve heard the old adage in filmmaking: “Fix it in post.” It’s a band-aid for the chaos of traditional production—patching up mistakes after the fact. But why settle for fixes when you can build entire worlds from scratch? We’re not just enhancing post-production; we’re redefining the entire creative process with cutting-edge AI technology. We’re replacing outdated, cumbersome techniques with seamless, limitless innovation. Say goodbye to the constraints of the physical world and hello to boundless possibilities.

Liberate Your Vision from Real-World Limitations

Traditional production is shackled by barriers that stifle creativity and inflate costs. We’re here to shatter them:

  • Physical Constraints: No more building elaborate sets, sourcing props, or dealing with weather-dependent shoots. With AI, we generate hyper-realistic environments on demand—whether it’s a bustling ancient Roman marketplace, a futuristic dystopian cityscape, or an underwater alien realm. Everything is crafted digitally, pixel-perfect, without a single hammer or nail.
  • Geographical Hurdles: Forget scouting locations, securing permits, or flying crews across continents. Our AI can transport your story anywhere in the universe (or multiverse) instantly. Film in the Himalayas, the Amazon rainforest, or even on Mars—all from the comfort of your desk. No visas, no jet lag, no logistical nightmares.

  • Scheduling Nightmares: Tight timelines? Actor availability issues? Last-minute changes? AI eliminates the need for synchronized shoots. We create and iterate scenes in real-time, allowing for flexible workflows that adapt to your schedule, not the other way around. Produce a full feature in weeks, not months.
  • Budget Burdens: The financial black hole of traditional filmmaking—rising costs for equipment rentals, travel, and overtime—disappears. Our AI-driven approach slashes expenses by up to 90%, making high-end production accessible to indie creators, brands, and studios alike. Invest in your story, not overhead.

We’re not just talking theory; we’re dismantling the relics of outdated production standards. Leave behind:

  • Expensive Cameras and Gear: No need for RED cameras, drones, or lighting rigs. Our AI generates stunning visuals in 4K, 8K, or beyond, with photorealistic rendering that rivals (and often surpasses) real-world footage.
  • Crews and Logistics: Bid farewell to massive teams of directors, grips, gaffers, and assistants. Our streamlined process requires minimal human input—focus on your creative direction while we handle the heavy lifting.
  • Reshoots and Do-Overs: Endless takes and costly pickups? Not anymore. AI allows infinite iterations and refinements without additional shoots. Tweak a character’s expression, adjust lighting, or rewrite a scene entirely—all in seconds.
  • Costumes, Makeup, and Props: Crafting wardrobes, applying prosthetics, or sourcing rare items is obsolete. We design and animate everything digitally, from historical attire to fantastical creature designs, ensuring consistency and perfection every time.

  • Sound Recording and Post-Audio: On-set audio challenges like background noise or mic issues are history. Our AI integrates crystal-clear sound design, voice synthesis, and immersive effects seamlessly into the visuals, creating a fully polished product from the start.

We are not cutting corners, we’re treading a new path.
