Story Over Tools
Learn a repeatable storytelling process that works across any tool, medium, or format—now and five years from now.
From Moments to Meaning
One image is easy. A believable sequence is hard. Learn how structure, pacing, sound, and suspension of disbelief turn isolated visuals into cohesive stories.
Create Work People Hire For
Novelty gets likes. Story gets work. Build narrative-driven pieces for music videos, ads, promos, and films that feel intentional, professional, and complete.
About the Course
This beginner course is for creatives who know a single image isn’t enough. If you can generate a striking image or clip, you’re already ahead of the curve. If that’s where your work stops, you’re still making glorified tech demos—not stories. This course is about crossing that gap. It’s about learning how to think in terms of story— how to build tension, sustain belief, and move an audience from the first frame to the last. The tools don’t sustain viewer attention. Story does. This isn’t a prompt library or tech demo. It’s a storytelling framework you can use for music videos, ads, films, promos—anything where AI slop alone isn't enough. If you’re tired of one-off visuals and want to create work that feels intentional, cohesive, and alive—this beginner course will change how you think, not just what you make.

In this video, I explore the concept of suspension of disbelief in storytelling and its importance in creating a believable and engaging narrative. I discuss how suspension of disbelief allows us to transcend reality and connect with the audience on a deeper level. I also touch on the role of AI in enhancing creativity and the potential it holds for creators. Join me as I share insights and techniques to maintain suspension of disbelief and create impactful stories.
About your instructor.
I started out in 2002 as a multidisciplinary artist, traveling the world for commissioned projects across screen, page, and stage. Since then, my creative work has reached over 100 million viewers worldwide. I directed an indie feature film, shot 20 music videos—including a six-week #1—and earned “Official Selections” at more than a dozen film festivals. I’ve spoken at TEDx and CreativeMornings, performed stand-up at the Improv, and collaborated with award-winning, chart-topping artists. I was a commissioned photographer for leading music magazines, and my fine art meme show premiered in New York. Watch some of my work below or go to www.taylorgahm.com
