Exit Strategy Productions builds AI-powered tools with vibe coding to solve real production problems. Each tool starts as a challenge we've faced in our own work—then we build the solution. Our platforms prioritize ethical AI development, creator ownership, and lowering barriers to high-quality production.

A unified platform that takes original artwork and stories through a complete animation pipeline using AI-powered tools—from script breakdown to character animation controlled by natural language to living, breathing environments.

The Vision

We propose building a single platform that lets artists maintain full IP ownership of their work while democratizing animation production for the 500,000+ creators worldwide who currently can't afford the complex technical pipeline or lack a complete skillset to animate on their own without a studio team.

The global animation software market, valued at $2.8 billion in 2023 and projected to reach $5.4 billion by 2030, presents a significant opportunity for disruption. Current professional pipelines cost $715/month minimum per artist—we're building to change that.

Platform Features

1. Script Intelligence & Scene Breakdown

Automatic shot generation, emotional beat mapping, and AI-powered pacing suggestions based on genre conventions. No animation-specific intelligence exists today—we're building it. Reduces script breakdown from 1-2 weeks to hours.

2. Character Creation & IP Ownership

Transform hand-drawn artwork into animated characters while preserving artistic style. Blockchain-verified ownership from sketch to screen. Enable comic artists (500,000+ professionals globally) and fine artists to enter animation—imagine watching a story with artwork based on your favorite painter.

3. Advanced Rigging and Animation

Natural language control of rigged 3D characters—prompt "Make him walk like he's carrying the weight of the world" and get editable keyframe data. No tool allows this today. Export to Maya, Blender, or game engines. Studios currently spend $5,000-15,000 per character for custom rigging.

4. Living Environment System

Transform LiDAR scans into dynamic worlds with wind systems, ambient crowds, traffic patterns, and weather dynamics. Every LiDAR scan today is frozen and lifeless—we make them breathe. Accepts scans from iPhone to professional Leica scanners, with AI enhancement to standardize quality.

5. Temporal AI Transformation

Feed in a modern scan of a New York street and our AI renders it as 1970s Times Square, Victorian-era London, or 2050 cyberpunk dystopia. Period transformation analyzes architectural styles, signage conventions, vehicle types, and environmental details from historical references.

6. Natural Language Cinematography

Director-style shot composition in 3D animated environments using prompts like "Hitchcock-style vertigo zoom." True 3D cinematography that integrates with the entire animation pipeline. Directors communicate directly with animated characters.

AI-powered tattoo removal pipeline for film and television production. One-time LiDAR actor scanning creates persistent profiles—then automatically remove tattoos from any footage, any angle, any lighting. Cuts VFX hours from dozens to minutes per shot.

The Challenge

In contemporary film and television production, tattoo removal represents a significant post-production challenge. Actors frequently have visible tattoos that conflict with character requirements, period settings, or continuity needs. Traditional approaches rely on either practical makeup (time-consuming and inconsistent) or frame-by-frame VFX work (expensive and labor-intensive).

A single scene requiring tattoo removal can consume dozens of VFX artist hours, with costs ranging from $500 to $2,000 per shot depending on complexity. DeInk introduces a paradigm shift: tattoo detection happens once during a controlled scanning session, while tattoo removal happens automatically during post-production.

System Architecture

Scan Phase: Actor Profile Creation

LiDAR capture using iPhone 12 Pro or newer. The operator walks around the actor in T-pose over 30-60 seconds. Point cloud reconstruction fuses multiple frames using ICP alignment. Mesh generation creates watertight triangle mesh with UV coordinates using Poisson surface reconstruction.

Tattoo Detection & Atlas Generation

Tattoo segmentation operates on UV-space texture maps using SAM (Segment Anything Model). Supports interactive mode (operator clicks on tattoos) and automatic mode (color anomaly detection). Results stored as grayscale atlas enabling projection onto any pose.

Process Phase: Automated Removal

Pose estimation detects body pose in each frame using MediaPipe or HMR2. Mesh fitting aligns stored actor mesh to detected pose. Atlas projection maps UV-space tattoo mask onto image coordinates. Temporal smoothing prevents mask flickering.

Video Inpainting

Generated masks processed through ProPainter for temporal-consistent video inpainting. Unlike image-based methods, ProPainter considers neighboring frames for seamless results. Maintains broadcast-quality output across any footage.

Technology Stack

LiDAR Capture: Record3D + iPhone. 3D Processing: Open3D, PyTorch3D. Segmentation: SAM (Meta). Pose Estimation: MediaPipe, HMR2. Inpainting: ProPainter. Complete pipeline from scan to processed footage.

Production Benefits

Eliminates manual rotoscoping. Actor profiles work across entire productions. Handles any pose, lighting, or camera angle automatically. Reduces per-shot costs from $500-2,000 to minutes of compute time. Consistent results across all footage.

Revolutionary AI-powered culinary content creation and education. By combining motion-captured master chef techniques with artificial intelligence, we enable automated generation of professional cooking instruction content while building the world's first comprehensive virtual cooking school.
