ISSHOGAI Photographer
I use artificial intelligence as an extension of my photographic vision, to explore concepts, build visual atmospheres, develop storyboards, and create still or moving images with a cinematic and editorial sensibility. My workflow includes tools such as Midjourney, Flux, Firefly, X-Field
Seedance,Runway, Hailuo , Kling, Luma Dream Machine, Veo 3, ChatGPT image 2, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, ElevenLabs, Suno, n8n, and any other AI tool that can serve a specific client need — always with the same intention: to keep technology at the service of emotion, narrative, and visual precision.
Beyond the Still Frame
For this presentation film about my work as a photographer, I started from my existing photographs and used AI to transform them into a fluid, cinematic visual narrative. The aim was both to express my artistic approach and to create a film rooted in my own imagery, while making the technology completely invisible. Rather than showcasing AI as an effect, I used it as a discreet tool to extend the life of my photographs and craft a seamless video experience true to my visual identity.
AI and the Memory of Origins
A cinematic presentation of how artificial intelligence can assist prehistoric research: from fossil analysis and 3D reconstruction to immersive scientific visualization.
This project shows AI as a tool for discovery, interpretation, and transmission — helping researchers bring ancient life back into visible form.
Memory of the River
Memory of the River is a ten-minute film created from an original text, music and soundtrack by a friend who works in the music industry. He approached me to transform this deeply personal tribute to his father into a visual narrative rooted in memory, heritage and the landscapes of Mali.
I developed the complete visual direction and production: interpreting the text, designing the characters and environments, creating the shot list, directing the light and framing, generating the images, animating each sequence, editing the film and completing the sound design.
The foundational images were created and refined with ChatGPT Image, then brought to life primarily with Kling. Particular attention was given to character consistency, geographical and visual continuity, natural movement and cinematic camera work. The objective was never to demonstrate the technology, but to make it disappear behind the emotion of the story.
Ultra-Realistic Virtual Model: Ilona
I created an ultra-realistic virtual model and developed her portfolio through a series of carefully directed images, each conceived and prompted with the visual language of renowned photographers in mind. Every photograph was designed as a distinct editorial proposition, exploring different aesthetics, moods, and approaches to image-making. The project shows how AI can be used to build a believable digital identity while crafting a sophisticated and visually coherent model book.
AI Wedding Story
This animated film was created entirely with AI, starting from photographs of the real people and the wedding locations. I first designed each character individually, translating every face, presence, and personality into a stylized animated version, before bringing them together into a complete film. The result is a bespoke animated story in which every key figure of the wedding appears, allowing the couple and their guests to discover themselves inside a poetic, playful, and fully personalized cinematic world.
New Year Film — AI Short
To celebrate the New Year, I created an AI-generated short film infused with references to the worlds of luxury, Haute Couture, and Haute Joaillerie. Conceived as a glamorous nocturnal celebration, the film brings together extraordinary women in a château, surrounded by elegance, craftsmanship, and cinematic splendor. Every image and video sequence was created entirely with AI, resulting in a visual tribute to beauty, artistry, and timeless allure.
Corporate Presentation Film — Swing One
For Swing One, I created an AI-driven corporate presentation film for an event in Monaco. The brief was received on Saturday at 9 p.m., and the final film was delivered on Sunday at 10:30 p.m. for a Monday 10 a.m. presentation. In less than 26 hours, the project moved from concept and visual direction to animation, editing, and final delivery.
The North Elves Universe — Kitsuné
I created an original fantasy universe built around the fall of the North Elves, betrayed by the Blood Elves and delivered to the cruelty of the Orcs. This betrayal forced their queen to unleash the Fire Dragon who guarded the Source of Life. After the massacre, only a few North Elves survived. When the Blood Elves killed the dragon, its heart vanished — and from that moment, the eyes of every surviving North Elf turned gold.
Kitsuné takes place after the war, in a remote village far from the ancestral lands of the North Elves. Through an AI-generated trailer and an original suno generated song, the project explores the scars of betrayal, the silence after destruction, and the birth of a new mythology where memory, fire, and survival become sacred.
