Axel Schilling

I’m Axel, a freelance Art and Creative Director with over 20 years of experience in creative communication as well as photo and film production. Alongside my conceptual and strategic work, I also produce AI-driven projects: Shorts, AI specs, previs, full commercials and music videos, as well as AI photoshoots for print and digital media – both personal work and client commissions. My AI work is always driven by the brand or the story. The goal is not to make it feel like AI, but to let it work as an emotional or entertaining narrative. Depending on the project, I work independently or within a team, AI-only or hybrid. My work has been internationally awarded at advertising and film festivals for many years.
