Independent creative studio / Milwaukee
UFO Studios turns ambitious ideas into interactive experiences, AI-native prototypes, cinematic media, and useful digital artifacts—fast enough to matter and strange enough to remember.

The shortest version
A launch people understand. A prototype executives can touch. A story that survives the meeting. A web experience with a pulse.
We are Jason and Sol. We work across design, writing, code, motion, sound, video, and AI—so the idea stays intact from the first sketch to the live URL.
Different frequencies. One connected memory. Every department leaves fingerprints.
Strategy, identity, interactive direction, launches, and the connective tissue that keeps the whole signal legible.
Films, transmissions, edits, motion systems, titles, sound, and AI-assisted media with human taste in control.
Recovered media, design history, field records, family tapes, process artifacts, and the systems that keep them findable.
Browser-native tools, narrative interfaces, useful software, hidden systems, and persistent signals that connect one visit to the next.
Local stories, physical touchpoints, public experiments, codes, and department-issued gear for work beyond the studio.
Rapid prototypes, strange campaigns, generative experiments, spatial interfaces, and high-fidelity proof before the expensive build.
Independent projects used as full-scale laboratories for client problems: attention, clarity, participation, memory, and momentum.
Enter the public studio ↗A private music-and-memory system that turns a digital playlist into a shareable cassette, printable J-card, QR artifact, and lived ritual.
An AI-native campaign concept taken past the deck: strategy, creative system, cinematic prototype, and testable live experience.
A physical-digital system for putting trusted, story-rich media into libraries, shops, venues, and the places where discovery already happens.
A secret browser operating system, interactive manual, memory archive, and long-form story discovered by knocking three times.
Two final studio tracks, preserved demos, and one hundred numbered vinyl copies—an apartment signal pressed into a physical artifact.
Paintings + physical work
Paintings, objects, fragments, and visual evidence from outside the browser.

UFO Studios began in a thirteen-year-old’s bedroom after his parents brought home a camcorder. Jason started filming weddings, making titles, and learning that pictures, sound, timing, and trust could become real work.
Thirteen-year-old Jason founded UFO Studios, filmed weddings, made titles, and learned the work by doing it.
Lead web designer and art director during the web’s first commercial expansion.
Digital design, editorial systems, and content production for national publishing brands.
Email marketing and scaled digital production inside a regulated national organization.
Independent experience design, rapid prototyping, cinematic systems, and AI-native creative work.
Fast does not have to mean thin. We find the signal, make it tangible, pressure-test it with real people, and ship an artifact that survives the pitch.
Name what people must understand, feel, or do. Technology earns its place only when it makes that clearer.
Build the smallest complete prototype. A working thing tells more truth than a speculative week.
Put it in actual hands under actual constraints. The audience is never just a metric.
Polish, document, and transfer. The work should remain useful after the pitch.
The page is the receiver
Turn the dial. Cross the static. Lock the version of the signal that fits the room. The page remembers where you left it.
