05 / your instructor

I'm Luis.

I'm a commercial AI director. What I use on client projects, I teach here.

I built AI Unchained around the work: making images and videos, understanding why they succeed, and helping you improve your own. Less hype. More honest conversations about what actually works.

06 / a few good questions

before you jump in.

From your first project to the practical details of joining.

Can I join if I have never made an AI video?

Yes. Start with a small project, work through the lessons and bring your questions to the community. You do not need a filmmaking background. If you already create images or videos, use the feedback to work on the parts you want to improve.

What will I learn to make?

AI images, ads, social content and short films. The focus is on creative decisions: shaping an idea, directing the look, keeping characters consistent, building movement and bringing the edit together. The goal is work you are proud to show an audience, a client or your own customers.

Which tools and workflows are covered?

You will work with image and video prompting systems, the Maestro assistants and Claude workflows for repetitive production tasks. The emphasis is on choosing a workflow for your project and understanding the decisions behind it. If a particular tool is essential to you, ask Luis about current coverage before joining.

Do I need separate AI subscriptions?

Some workflows require paid tools or generation credits. Those costs are separate from your community membership and depend on what you make and how much you generate. Start with the tools needed for one project rather than subscribing to everything at once.

What do I get beyond free tutorials?

A place to put the learning into practice. Share a piece in Cinema Room for specific feedback, ask questions and bring work in progress to live calls with Luis. You also get access to the prompt systems and workflows he uses in commercial production.

How does the community work?

AI Unchained lives on Skool, where you access lessons, discussions and the call schedule. There are three live calls a week with Luis. You can also post your work and questions between calls, so participation does not depend on attending every session.

How much time should I set aside?

Build around a project you actually want to finish. A useful starting routine is one focused learning session, one practice session and time to apply feedback each week. That is a suggestion, not a requirement; your pace will depend on your starting point and the project.

Can I use these skills for client or brand work?

That is a practical application of what you learn: developing ads, product stories and social content for a business or client. Luis brings experience from commercial AI direction. Winning work and earning income still depend on your skills, portfolio, outreach and the needs of the market; membership does not guarantee paid projects.

Will this help me as AI tools change?

The community gives you a place to discuss new tools and share what you are testing. The teaching also focuses on decisions that carry across tools—story, composition, lighting, consistency and pacing. For the latest lessons and tool coverage, ask Luis or check inside Skool.

What does membership cost?

Membership is currently $29 per month. AI tool subscriptions and generation credits are extra. Check the current plan on Skool and review the currency, taxes and total at checkout before subscribing.

Can I cancel, and is there a guarantee?

You can cancel future renewals through your Skool account. There is also a 14-day money-back guarantee on your first membership payment: email Luis or message him on Skool within 14 days of first joining as a paying member. Read the cancellation and refund details.

Do you offer workshops for teams?

Yes. There is a separate practical workshop built around your team and your products. Explore team workshops or get in touch to discuss what you want to create.

Your next project starts here.
