The Journey
What began as a “crypto satire” quickly became a full-body character study. The project pushed us to explore not just new motion techniques using AI tools like Runway and ElevenLabs, but also voice layering, glitch storytelling, and visual timing for narrative arcs. The response from Bryce and the creative community affirmed that this story — as absurd as it is — hit something real.
ZER0XBRO proved that satire can swing hard, as long as it swings with style.
Scope of Work
Storyboard interpretation and creative direction
Full visual design for 9 cinematic panels (in 9:16 ratio)
Motion graphics using Runway AI and post-timed enhancements
Character-consistent voiceover casting via ElevenLabs
SFX and music direction (glitch FX, punch sync, ambient tension)
Final trailer rendering and delivery
Process & Approach
From the moment the concept landed, our direction was clear — treat Cade not just as a punchline, but as a fully animated contradiction. We translated Bryce’s sharp script into gritty, ink-washed visuals and timed motion layers, pairing dry VO with glitchy trap beats and ambient pressure. Each panel was treated as a cinematic moment, then brought to life with motion prompts, voice layers, and punchy transitions.
Character consistency, outfit continuity, and panel-by-panel VO pacing were key to syncing the comic’s satirical tone with high-impact delivery.

ZER0XBRO – Proof of Fight
Project Overview
ZER0XBRO – Proof of Fight is a satirical motion comic trailer created in collaboration with writer/director Bryce McGuire. Set in a post-crypto crash landscape, it follows Cade — a washed-up “brotagonist” trying to reclaim relevance through pain, memes, and personal branding. The trailer explores the absurdity of influencer culture, self-optimization, and the fight for digital masculinity, all told through the rhythm of cage fights and podcast proposals.
