Where did I misstep?

A close friend once shared her sketchbook with me—
filled with her life, her dreams, her fears.
She paused at one drawing and gently asked,
“Where did I misstep?”
That question never left me.
This AI film is my way of bringing her sketches to life—
a tribute to her strength, courage, and the dreams she carried.
It’s also a small chapter of my own AI journey.

The story behind the film

A close friend once shared her sketchbook with me—
pages filled with her life, her dreams, her fears.
She paused at one sketch and softly asked,
“Where did I misstep?”
That question stayed with me.
Today, thanks to the capabilities of AI, I’ve been able to transform her static sketches into a living, moving tribute.
This short film is not just about her—it’s a reflection of how far creative technology has come.
What once lived only on paper, now breathes with motion, emotion, and voice—powered by AI.
It’s a small, personal chapter of my AI journey—blending storytelling with innovation.
