People Involved

Nora is not made alone.

While generative tools play a central role, the project depends on human judgment, collaboration, and care at many points. Some people are involved briefly. Others return across multiple frames. Their contributions shape the work in ways tools alone cannot.

This isn’t a background detail. It’s part of how the project holds together.

Design and Visual Direction

Designers are involved where generation is the wrong tool for the job.

This includes branding, visual systems, and decisions that require long-term consistency or cultural sensitivity. These contributions help anchor the project visually and provide structure that supports the more fluid, frame-based work.

Generative visuals still play an active role inside frames, but the broader visual language benefits from human design judgment.

Sound and Finishing Work

For a small number of pieces that stand out clearly within a frame, sound engineers and professional mixing houses may be involved.

Their role is to help bring clarity, balance, and durability to work that feels ready for extra care. This isn’t about fixing mistakes or standardizing the sound. It’s about supporting pieces that invite more attention.

Not every frame produces work that reaches this stage. Not every strong piece needs it.

Consultation and Review

Select artists and professionals are consulted as part of the project’s ongoing practice.

These conversations help inform decisions around representation, authorship, and responsible use of tools. They also provide outside perspective when work enters unfamiliar territory.

This isn’t a one-time review step. It’s an ongoing dialogue that evolves as the project evolves.

Payment and Respect for Labor

Human work is paid for.

Design, engineering, consultation, and finishing work are compensated where they are used. This is treated as a baseline expectation, not an exception.

The project does not treat human contribution as symbolic or optional. Where people are involved, their time and expertise are valued materially as well as creatively.

A Shared Practice

Nora is shaped through many kinds of attention.

Some come from tools. Some come from people. Some come from long conversations about whether something should exist at all.

The work reflects that mixture. It isn’t uniform, and it isn’t meant to be. What matters is that it is made with care, supported responsibly, and shaped through real collaboration.
