We believe the best tools are built alongside the people who use them. That’s why we’re welcoming filmmaker and creative director Henry Daubrez to the Google Labs team. As our new filmmaker in residence, Henry will continue to help shape the future of Flow, our AI filmmaking tool, by working directly with our team. Henry was an early partner in developing Flow, creating the short film Electric Pink using the tool.

He’ll also mentor artists in our new pilot program, Flow Sessions, that supports filmmakers as they bring stories to life. With Flow Sessions, we’re offering a group of talented filmmakers unlimited access to Flow, plus mentorship and AI education to pursue the amazing ideas they’ve been dreaming up.

Henry will also create new video content showcasing Flow's latest technology and features, like his starter project, The Enchanted Door, which lets Flow users jump into a story and choose what happens next after a character stumbles upon a mysterious archway.

We’ll continue to share updates on Flow Sessions and the content Henry creates in this role.
