Had a great time at @A24 with @BernieSu, @arthuregao the crew @Pickford_AI. We are using @fal's Max and Pickford StoryKernel engine to build the next version of Whispers, the next gen of interactive/immersive storytelling.
A Pixar creative director, a venture principal and a n interactive storyteller sit on an AI panel and spend the whole time talking about character and experiences.
No tooling, no workflows, no models, just straight up what resonates long term with audiences.
I had a great week at fal, got to meet a lot of my remote team mates, had a great time demoing at GMC (thanks @Pickford_AI ).
So much great stuff coming!
A TV show generated in real time that still feels like the same show.
At @fal's GenMedia Conference, crowds spent all day dropping whimsical twists into a live episode of Whispers. Across characters and scenes, the story continued.
MiniMax H3 Max + a custom LoRA by @fal
Seedance US 2.5 now supports native 1080p generation on fal.
More resolution means noticeably finer details, cleaner textures, and more room for complex scenes, while keeping the motion quality and consistency of Seedance 2.5.
StoryKernel is now public! Experience it here: https://t.co/4bCoV30bE4
Video models struggle with long form content. StoryKernel lets you produce stories with actual narratives; these real-time narratives are interactive and can run for as long as you want.
Weโre opening an entirely new way for you to create.
We've been using StoryKernel ourselves for a while. And the first thing we built on it, an interactive murder mystery called Whispers (https://t.co/aZ2xAK4DOE), is a Finalist for the 2026 Emmys, and has played to sold out audiences at cinemas across the country.
You're opinionated on the visuals, we're not. StoryKernel can plug into whatever toolkit you already use โ fal, MiniMax, Reactor, a gaming engine, and more. We track all of the story canon, making sure your story is consistent across hours and even episodes.
You'll only need to be on our page for a minute, the rest is between you and your agent.
You've seen the infinite AI slop channels. Now imagine one with a plot, characters that hold, and an audience solving a murder inside it.
Tomorrow we show one from an Emmy finalist series.
Whispers x @fal, free online screening.

The Emmys on monday night were as star-studded as it gets - we literally bumped into Tom Holland (the star of the year's two biggest movies) in the crowded lobby while heading to our seats. As a small team from a small startup, it was humbling to be surrounded by so many talented, creative people.
We also couldn't help noticing how many awards were won by tech companies this year, with AppleTV leading the count. Hollywood is changing, but people still want storytelling.
That's why we're so excited about our partnership with @fal. We're collaborating to bring new levels of visual freedom to Whispers, while still keeping storytelling at the forefront.
Stay tuned for more to come. #emmys
