About

I am Daria Sidulenko, an AI director and visual author working at the intersection of cinema and AI technologies. I founded Edelwaiss Studio and create cinematic AI films, narrative scenes and branded visual stories with a director’s approach.
I lead projects end-to-end—from idea and script to final video: visual directing, work with characters and dramaturgy, voice/speech integration and post-production. I thrive on blending cutting-edge AI tools with traditional storytelling to craft immersive visual experiences.
