He began as a filmmaker in France, directing short films and TV pilots before spending two decades as a Creative Director, blending brand strategy, narrative content, and cultural impact for world-wide brands.
Dr. Machakil’s love for innovative motion picture storytelling naturally led him to AI as an evolution of what a single creator can dream and build for original stories and brand content. Today, his AI works are winning global acclaim, including World’s Best AI Trailer and The Prompt Floor mockumentary, heralded as “The peak of AI video meme culture.”
Mehdi believes that AI is the lifetime opportunity to explore new narrative formats and keep reimagining what stories can be.
