goodbye monkey
closing the gap between fiction and reality
we are a studio creating film and AI characters that live across fiction and reality.
we work with what was previously impossible, valuing deep art and nature/tech symbiosis.
all of our film is shot in the real world, with RED cinema cameras.
S.A.N - sentient advocate of nature
our flagship creation: AI orangutan and voice for living systems.
part digital, part mushroom and a reimagining of the conservation story, S.A.N is always evolving: on film, on socials, and in the real world.
S.A.N has collaborated with TED, burning man org, rainforest foundation and helped raise over $160,000 NZD in cryptocurrency for rainforest projects.
S.A.N’s mission is simple: protect the rainforest and help humans remember they’re a part of nature too.
