YourStory
About
A student-led video production team bringing local businesses’ stories to life with generative AI
YourStory is an AI video production team of six students at Akita International University in Japan. Founded with a desire to showcase the appeal of Akita and other regions through video, the team creates commercials and promotional films for businesses.
At the heart of its approach is storytelling that keeps viewers engaged to the end. Each project begins by considering the audience, the message, and the moments that will resonate emotionally. From concept development and narrative structure to video generation, editing, on-screen text, and voiceover, YourStory handles the entire production process.
