Who Dis?

 

It’s nice to meet you!

Curious Refuge is a home for unlocking your inner storyteller using the latest tools. We truly believe we are on the cusp of a new era in storytelling.

This transition will change the way story are told, and we want to be your guides along the way.

Through our training, we share the creative potential of AI tools with studios, brands, and everyday artists looking to know where the creative world is heading.

We believe in giving back to the creative community. As a result, our videos, blog content, & interactive courses are designed to help inspire curiosity and help you achieve your creative potential.

We host the world’s first online AI filmmaking course, the first AI advertising course for high-end campaigns, and we are the masterminds behind the first viral AI trailer. We showed the world the future of storytelling, and now we’re passionate about helping you unlock your inner storyteller.

In addition to courses, we work with world-class clients and storytellers to bring their creative visions to life.

Click around the Curious Refuge site. This is your new refuge for inspiration.

Welcome to our online home. We’re a bunch of goofballs, so you’re in good company. 😉
