Every pound in a budget should end up on the screen. We process your script through that lens — what an audience actually sees — and find where the money is about to go on things the camera will never show.
No guesswork, no gear you'll never deploy, no surprises waiting in post.
No one releases the money on a building without an independent survey — buyers want the hidden rot found before they commit. A film is no different, and almost no one does it. We survey the technical foundations of the script and give you, your investors and your bond company data-backed proof that the shooting plan is sound, and free of the structural collapses that only surface in post.
A storyboard is an artist's impression. It convinces everyone until the crew arrives. We replace the drawing with a lens-accurate digital rehearsal: the scene built to scale, in the actual optics, before a single day is booked.
Every supplier you bring in sells you their own answer. Each is selling the hammer they own.
We bring the craft of the practical to modern real-time tools, and judge every option against the only thing that counts: what the camera can actually see.
One engagement, three stages — prep, production, post.
A full read of the script through the lens: where the money is about to go on things the camera won't reward, where the technical risk is hiding, and the questions to settle before anyone commits a penny. Delivered as a document your whole production — and your financiers — can use. Flat fee.
We take your most expensive scenes and rehearse them digitally — built to scale in the real lens and sensor, so you see the shot before you build the set. The deliverable is a blueprint: what the approach takes, what it costs, and what the alternative costs. Where volume changes the economics, we show you the tipping point. Flat rate per scene.
We carry the agreed plan through production and post — in house on Lexhag's resources, or with the right vendor sourced and managed to our standard. Accountable from the floor to final picture, with access to our regional and international network to structure work for global tax incentives.
A flat fee for the script report.
A flat rate per scene to build and test the plan.
One rate in prep, one in production, one in post.
All set out before you commit.
It's a plan built for your film, using every tool available.
We back the report. Take the work forward and the script report fee is credited in full against execution.
Am I AI is the sister company to Lexhag, led by Alexis Haggar and Tom Lewis. Lexhag brings the pedigree — high-end film and television effects work, and a reputation for solving the problems other shops won't take on.
Neither of us is a VFX lifer, and that's the point. Between us we've come at the work from practical effects, post supervision, editorial and marketing, by way of traditional VFX problem-solving. We've seen what breaks a sequence from several sides, not just one — which is why we don't lead with a pipeline. We bring the instincts of the practical, magic-trick era to the newest tools, and let the camera settle the argument.
And let's be clear — we don't make AI movies.
We make live-action cinema: human actors, physical sets, real glass. We use AI as an internal engine to read and process script data faster, and real-time 3D to rehearse setups. Every deliverable we hand you is a blueprint for a physical camera — 100% human-authored, fully copyrightable, fully insurable. Nothing we do puts your E&O cover, union standing or financing at risk.
Whether it's a single tricky sequence, a script you want surveyed, or a broader technical package across effects and post — we're happy to talk it through. Even just a call to model the options would be welcome.
