The Broad Made Me Feel Small. VGAI Fixed That.

My wife snapped this at The Broad, next to a sculpture of an oversized folding table and chairs. Standing there feeling like a garden gnome, there was only one reasonable response: become the giant myself.

So I did. One photo, one afternoon, and a 5-second AI video later, I’m sprinting toward camera, growing to sculpture scale, and settling into the chair like I’ve owned the place my whole life. The crowd seems unbothered. Bystanders, please form an orderly line.

This one’s mostly just for fun, but it’s also proof of what a single photo and the right AI prompt can pull off. If a museum selfie can become this, imagine what Dead Ringers can build for your brand.

Founders Series pricing (50% off your first project) runs through September 15, in case a version of this made you think “wait, I want one of those.

Artificial Intelligence Meets

Artistic Intelligence

Village Green AI is led by Jason Sikes — creative director, digital strategist, and Northwestern University graduate (BS, Radio/TV/Film) with a minor in Fine Art.

Jason’s career spans marketing and production roles at E! Entertainment Television and FOX Broadcasting, where he led marketing campaigns, developed brand content, and executive produced television programming. After founding Village Green Studios in 2000 — a digital design and marketing agency serving businesses and creatives for 25+ years — he now brings that same strategic creative thinking to AI-guided visual production.

Village Green AI exists because great AI visuals don’t come from prompts alone. They come from artistic intelligence — the kind built over decades of design, storytelling, and brand work. Every project is guided by human creative direction from concept to final polish, ensuring your visuals are intentional, on-brand, and genuinely distinctive.

AI is the tool. Artistic intelligence is the difference.
