The story

Two decades of craft, reborn in AI.

Portrait of Zachary Lynch-Woodlock

Zachary Lynch-Woodlock is an award-winning director and editor with twenty years behind the camera in film, television and advertising, now channelling that craft into generative AI filmmaking.

Across his career he has directed campaigns for brands including KFC, PepsiCo, HCF, Mitre 10 and the Australian Red Cross, alongside music videos for Birds of Tokyo and The Rions. His work is built on strong visuals, emotive storytelling and a sharp instinct for comedy, casting and performance.

At TheBird.AI he brings that same directorial eye to AI-native production, developing bold spec films, commercials and cinematic experiments at a speed traditional production can't match, without losing the feel of crafted, intentional filmmaking.
