Who's Behind This

About Joy

I'm Joy, an Ireland-based AI filmmaker and storyteller. Before this, I spent years in teaching and school leadership. I hold a Master's degree in Sustainable Development, which influences how I think about people, communities and meaningful storytelling.

My process is AI-assisted, not AI-only. I write the story, direct the creative choices, develop the characters, and review and edit every scene myself until it holds together. The tools help me produce the work faster. The judgment and the final say are mine.

My Process

Character Consistency

One of the hardest parts of AI animation is keeping a character looking like themselves from one scene to the next.

I build a visual reference for each main character before production starts, and use it to guide every scene so the character stays recognisable through the film.

AI-assisted animation is still developing technology, so small inconsistencies can happen. I review and correct what I can during editing, and I'm upfront about that rather than promising perfect consistency every time.

Good to Know

Frequently asked questions

How long can my video be?

It depends on the project. I generally work in four formats: a Personalised Mini Video (30–60 seconds), a Celebration Story (1–3 minutes), a Premium Animated Film (3–5 minutes), and Church, Brand or Long-Form Productions at a custom duration. We'll agree the right length for your project at the quotation stage.

How long does production take?

Production time depends on the length and complexity of the project. This will be confirmed as part of your quotation.

What information do you need from me?

Usually names, key dates, the story or message you want told, and any photos or reference details for the people or characters involved. I'll ask for anything specific once I understand your project.

Can you create a personalised character based on someone real?

Yes. I build a visual reference for each character to keep facial features, age, hairstyle and clothing consistent across the film. AI-assisted animation isn't perfect, so small inconsistencies can happen, but I review and correct what I can during editing.

Do you offer voice-over?

Voice-over can be part of a project depending on what it needs. We'll discuss this and confirm it in your quotation.

Do you provide music?

Music and sound are discussed per project and confirmed in your quotation.

How many revisions are included?

Revisions are confirmed as part of your quotation for each project.

Who owns the finished video, and how can I use it?

Usage rights depend on how the video will be used, personal, church or ministry, or commercial, and are confirmed as part of your quotation.

Can you produce longer films, not just personalised videos?

Yes. Church, brand and long-form productions are one of my main services, alongside personalised celebration videos. Custom duration and scope, confirmed in your quotation.

AI animation sometimes gets small details wrong. How do you handle that?

I review every scene during editing and correct what I can. Because this is AI-assisted production, I aim for strong consistency rather than promising perfect results every time, and I'm upfront about that from the start.
