From the first idea to the final cut.
I’m Stepan. I develop and make advertising films and visual stories, including product and property films. I lead the project myself and bring in collaborators when the work calls for them.

Films shaped around your project.
Product films, property stories and production for agencies. Each project starts with its own brief and a written scope.
For developers and property marketing teams
Off-plan property launch films
Turn approved CGI, architectural renders and project stills into a coherent film for sales launches, investor decks, landing pages and paid social.
For beauty, fragrance and design-led products
Product launch films
Build a coherent launch film from packshots, product pages and brand references when a conventional shoot is too slow or cannot create the scene.
For creative, CGI and property marketing agencies
White-label property-film production
Your agency keeps the client relationship. I work from your brief, deliver clean files under NDA and handle the AI production layer behind the scenes.
For studios and agencies: finished AI shots to your shot list, 3–5 seconds each, 1080p. You keep the script and the edit. $50 per shot.
No meetings required
A written process with decisions in the right order.
The brief, quote and keyframe approvals can all run by email or chat. Calls are optional.
-
Share the assets
Send the goal, launch date, renders or packshots and references.
-
Approve the written scope
I return the treatment, shot list, delivery date and fixed quote.
-
Approve keyframes
You check architecture, product shape, subjects, framing and visual direction before motion.
-
Receive the finished film
I create the scenes, edit and finish the film, then deliver campaign-ready files.
Fixed project pricing
One film. One primary format. One fixed quote.
A typical property launch film is built from 35-45 planned shots. The quote covers the finished production result, not generation attempts.
- Property launch filmA 35-45-shot film in one chosen format, including treatment and shot list, keyframe approval, AI scene production, edit, basic finishing, sound design and simple on-screen titles.
- from $2,500Schedule fixed after asset review
- Product campaign filmA shorter film in one chosen format, including concept, scene production, edit, basic finishing, sound design and simple on-screen titles.
- from $900Schedule fixed after asset review
- Direction and motion testOne approved keyframe and one 3-5 second motion scene. The fee is credited to the ordered film.
- $300Before full production
Each quote covers one 16:9 or 9:16 master. The second aspect ratio is a separate production because its compositions and scenes are generated and edited again; it is quoted as a second film. You review a watermarked preview before payment and receive clean full-resolution files after payment. Paid music, voiceover, source reconstruction, complex motion graphics and separate licences are agreed before production. Standalone shot-only work is available by request.
Stepan Bessmelnitsin
One filmmaker, from idea to delivery
I’m Stepan Bessmelnitsin, an independent filmmaker. I develop the idea, direct the work and bring the film together through editing and post-production.
I have worked professionally in video production since 2012 and have used generative AI in commercial projects since 2023. These tools are part of the process, alongside cinematography, compositing, colour and sound.
You work with me throughout the project. When the work needs other authors, I bring them in. For agency projects, I work under the agency’s brand and do not contact its client.
- Written scope first Treatment, shot list, timeline and fixed quote before production.
- Keyframes before motion Architecture, product form and visual direction are approved early.
- Campaign-ready master Edit, finishing, sound design and titles are part of the production.
- Private by default NDA and white-label delivery are available for unreleased projects.
Before you send the brief
What a remote production needs to work.
- What assets can I send?
- Architectural CGI, approved renders, product packshots, brand guidelines, a landing page and visual references. I’ll flag what is usable and what is missing before quoting.
- Can the whole project run without a call?
- Yes. The whole process, from scope approval to file delivery, can run entirely by email or chat. If your team prefers a meeting, it is optional rather than a requirement.
- How do you protect property or product accuracy?
- I anchor the work to approved source assets and keyframes. Geometry, packaging, logos and claims that must stay exact are identified in the written scope before motion.
- How many revision rounds are included?
- One consolidated revision round within the approved direction is included. Usage, source-material responsibilities, licensed music and any AI disclosure requirements are written into the quote before work starts.
