hi, i'm john chedeville, a 20-year-old independent motion artist from france.
i believe the best work happens when you stop thinking about your tools and start thinking about your subject.
that is why i aim to build strong, versatile tools for creatives, helping them achieve their best work faster — instead of seeking to replace them.
these days, i'm working on multi-agent orchestration across harnesses, as well as advanced optimisation techniques through agentic hill-climbing by way of fine-tuned feedback loops.
