Alp Celik

A filmmaker in Miami. I use generative AI the way a director uses a crew, and I plan, direct and finish every project myself.

I grew up on dark fantasy: gothic cathedrals, trench war epics and the grim far future of the tabletop. It taught me atmosphere, scale and restraint, and I bring that to every project, whatever the tone.

In 2024 I started Fantasy Future, a YouTube channel of long-form fantasy storytelling. It has reached 31,000 subscribers and 4.7 million views, with episodes of one to two and a half hours that people watch for 25 minutes and more. I produce every episode alone, from research and narration direction to visuals, sound and the final edit.

Generative video has changed what one director can make. I work from a written shot list, keep reference sheets for every character and product, review contact sheets, and reshoot until each frame holds up. When a job repeats, I build a pipeline for it: tools that turn scripts into edited timelines, stills into trailers and screen recordings into finished tutorials.

I am a Creator Partner at Higgsfield and a moderator of its official Discord, so I work with new tools the week they launch.

I am finishing an Associate in Arts in Computer Arts Animation at Miami Dade College, and I work in English and Turkish.
