About


Luma Tales is the studio of Steven Nguyen, a photographer and filmmaker in Orange County, California.

How we work

  1. Brief

    We start with two questions: what the story is for, and who will watch it.

  2. Keyframes

    We make still frames first, so the look is agreed before anything moves.

  3. Video

    The approved frames become shots, and the shots are cut into the finished film.

Why AI

AI lets a small studio tell stories that used to need a large crew. It does not direct itself: a person still decides every frame, what stays and what goes.
