Selected organizations, collaborators & stages
I help studios, creative leaders, and organizations decide where AI belongs, how to direct it, and what should remain distinctly human. That judgment comes from practice: building agentic production systems inside Coca-Cola’s Atlanta headquarters, and helping originate Georgia State’s Creative Media Industries Institute.
“Astonishing. Like it or not, AI is here, and it is something every filmmaker needs to understand.”Tom Luse · Executive Producer, The Walking Dead · on the Generative Storytelling Lab
For conferences, leadership summits, and company events. Built around authorship, judgment, and strategy, not a parade of tools. Signature talks include:
The Generative Storytelling Lab: in one intensive day, your team develops, directs, and screens original short films using generative production tools.
Embedded AI strategy for media, entertainment, and creative organizations.
Inside StudioNow’s long-standing embedded operation at Coca-Cola’s Atlanta headquarters, I built an agentic scripting system, trained producers to understand how AI content is created and how to produce with AI talent, and advised creative leadership on AI strategy.
Additional consulting and creative technology work includes Trilith Studios, Dallas Austin Distribution, and organizations across film, immersive media, education, and emerging technology.
Measured by whether people can use the system, make better decisions, and ship stronger work.

Elizabeth Strickler is an AI media strategist and institution builder working at the intersection of storytelling, production, and emerging technology. Across three decades, her work has pursued one question: how can people direct powerful technologies without surrendering authorship, judgment, or meaning?
At Georgia State University, she directs Media Entrepreneurship and Innovation. She helped originate the initiative that became the Creative Media Industries Institute, from its precursor, DAEL, through planning and implementation; designed the institute’s technology architecture; and created the core curriculum for its Media Entrepreneurship program.
Most recently, working inside StudioNow’s embedded production operation at Coca-Cola, she built an agentic scripting system, trained producers to work with AI production methods and talent, and advised creative leadership on AI strategy. Her consulting has also included Trilith Studios and Dallas Austin Distribution.
She has spoken at TEDxAtlanta, SXSW, and the MENA ICT Forum; produced the Directors Guild of America Atlanta AI Seminar; and founded the Immersive Impact Review, a peer-reviewed journal of immersive media. She began her career building internet infrastructure and holds degrees in philosophy, computer science, and digital filmmaking.
