WORLD CLASS AI VIDEO PRODUCTION
AI INTERNATIONAL CREATIVE TEAM, BASED IN LONDON
With a track record of developing multi-million-pound productions, 404 Films is the home for fresh ideas, using the latest in AI Video and technology. Pushing the frontiers of storytelling.
404 FILMS
Big ideas, built from scratch.
404 Films has been experimenting with emerging video models since 2023, building deep, practical knowledge of what these tools can and can’t do.
We use that edge to develop original scripted and unscripted projects, collaborating with distribution partners, entering film competitions, and releasing select work directly into the wild via our YouTube channel.
If you’ve got a short script or a strong idea and you’re willing to take a proper creative risk, get in touch.

A blazing political satire about power, image, and modern conflict.
This is Licked — a new fashion label, the brainchild of Chris Compton
We started with Chris’ original crafted artworks, made them visual with AI tools and fuelled it with a ridiculous track built in Udio (my favourite part).
Life’s too short to be serious.
We All Play With the Same Ball – A 404 Films Original
Football is a simple game that anyone can play — no matter who you are, we all play with the same ball. This video started when my daughter and I kicked a ball around in the garden.

The Day They Turned Off the Dark – A 404 Films Original
What if you could turn off the dark? Inspired by my daughter, this is a story about a universal truth: bedtime can be tough.
I wrote this years ago and have brought it to life with AI video.
All pictures and sound (except two VO lines) were built using tools that didn’t exist 6 months ago.
If you know any authors or publishers, I’d love to bring my skills to their worlds. It feels like an open goal — either alongside a book release or to expand an existing universe please get in touch.
Fade to Black
Reality is breaking, one timeline at a time. In a world where memory flickers like static, three lives begin to overlap — across centuries, across continents, across something they cannot explain.
What starts as a sickness becomes something else. Letters pixelate. Rivers ripple with code, walls shimmer. When worlds collide, they’re forced to confront a truth that’s been buried inside the story all along. Are they heroes… or just the messenger?
This short film was developed for the Runway AIFF 2025 Film Festival, made in collaboration with Isy Imarni, Alan Hall, Paul Kerrison and Simon Allinson.
Britain: Land of Wind, Water and Salt
What happens when AI is made for conscience, not clicks.
What if this was Britain? A nation built to lead the next century, not just survive the next crisis. In this short film, I’ve created a vision of Net Zero, powered by wind, water and salt. Independent. Resilient. Proud.
It’s not fiction. The technology exists.
It was made using tools you can access right now — Midjourney, Kling, Udio, Premiere Pro.
Submitted to the UN’s AI For Good Festival 2025.
