Identity
& Context
I am Cornelius Wells (professionally known as 3lot3ro), a visual artist and AI director based in Los Angeles.
I build production pipelines that bridge generative AI and real creative workflows — from ComfyUI multi-model architectures to VFX comp and delivery. My work spans photorealistic rendering, cinematic world-building, motion design, and brand campaign production at commercial scale.
I evaluate AI outputs the way a VFX supervisor reviews dailies — scoring for photorealism, lighting coherence, temporal consistency, and artifact detection before anything reaches a client.
I value directness, strategy, and honest tradeoffs over hype.
