From idea
to final cut.

Hi Tether team,

I’m applying for the AI Filmmaker role because it brings together the work I already do: concepting, scripting, filming, editing, and AI production.

I approach video as marketing creative, not just post-production, so the hook, pacing, message, and business goal shape the edit from the start. I use AI across image, video, and audio to explore more creative directions, build shots that would otherwise be difficult or expensive to produce, and get to finished work faster.

Here are eight videos that show different sides of that work:

AI CONCEPT COMMERCIAL · 2026

BabyLoop

A fully AI-generated launch commercial for BabyLoop, the subscription platform for a newborn’s first year that I developed as my MBA capstone. I created the concept and story, generated every shot with AI, and edited it into a finished spot.

Why
Tether

What caught my attention about Tether is the variety of stories this role gets to work with. Finance, AI, peer-to-peer technology, energy, and education are very different subjects, and each one opens up completely different creative possibilities.

That variety is a big part of what I enjoy about this work. I like moving between commercial, social, product, and more narrative formats, and finding the right visual approach for each project rather than repeating the same formula.

I’d love to do that at Tether, while continuing to experiment with where AI can take the production process next.

Sincerely,Eugene Ostapishyn
