Odair Faléco

I bring human intention to new ways of making films.

Brazilian roots.
Worldwide perspective.

For over 20 years, I’ve worked across creative direction, interaction design and filmmaking. Today I combine that experience with AI to take ambitious ideas from concept to cinematic output.

Since 2023, I’ve been exploring AI filmmaking through original shorts, branded content and real production workflows. I help creative teams choose the right tools, protect their brand and keep control of the final image.

My background includes R/GA, Accenture Song and DDB, collaborating with brands including McDonald’s, Mastercard and Volkswagen.

I’m the founder of zero1cine, an award-winning AI film studio and the world’s first curated AI film database. I’m also President & Curator of the Czech International AI Film Festival in Prague, and speak, teach and serve on juries around the world.
