A Studio Built at the Intersection of Craft and Technology

Simulation Studios was founded by Graham Tallman — AFI graduate, Hollywood veteran, and one of the first working filmmakers to build a production studio around AI tools. His short films have screened at TIFF and AFI Fest. He has developed scripts for Amazon Studios, adapted properties for major studios, and spent 25 years working inside an industry that is now being fundamentally remade.

"The tools changed. The craft didn't."

He first taught AI filmmaking in 2022, and now offers his own course on Udemy — because the single most important thing happening in film right now isn't the technology. It's whether the people who already know how to tell stories learn to use it before the people who don't know storytelling learn to fake it.

Simulation Studios exists on both sides of that equation. We make original AI-powered films — including The Heroic Life of Max, a weekly short film series — and we produce AI trailer and development content for projects that need to move fast and look exceptional. Every frame comes from a filmmaker who has spent a career understanding what makes an audience feel something.

The tools are new. The standard isn't.
