The Studio
The creative division of Confluent Solutions. We build original virtual actors, fictional characters, and the worlds they live in.
What We Are
A production house without a soundstage
We create performers who don’t exist, give them a consistent face and a body of work, and produce the series they appear in. The craft is continuity: a character who looks like the same person in the hundredth frame as the first.
Principles
What we hold to
Synthetic media earns trust by being obvious about what it is. These are not marketing lines — they govern what we will and won’t produce.
Originality
Every actor is designed from a written specification, not from a real person’s likeness. No stock faces, no borrowed identities, no impersonation.
Disclosure
We say plainly, everywhere, that our performers are virtual and our images are AI-generated. Nobody should have to work out that a face isn’t real.
Consent
The only likenesses of real people we build are avatars, and only with the subject’s explicit consent, written authorization, and stated limits.
How We Work
Identity before image
Identity first
An actor begins as a written specification — face, proportions, colouring, movement, voice — before a single image exists.
A locked reference set
Approved references become the actor’s canon. Everything produced afterwards is measured against them.
Continuity across roles
Wardrobe, styling, and story change with the part. The face underneath does not.
Disclosed at publication
Every post and every frame carries its synthetic-media disclosure when it goes out.
