StageRunner Podcast Ep2- PJ Ace

from StageRunner Podcast · host Stagerunner Podcast, Gannon Murphy, Jason Fisher

On this episode of the StageRunner Podcast, we sit down with PJ Ace—a commercial filmmaker who went from scaling YouTube channels to 1M subscribers to running an AI ad agency charging six-figure budgets. PJ walks us through the two-day Kalshi NBA Finals campaign, the shift from text-to-video to photoreal talking heads with Google Veo 3, and why his team is already turning down work. We dig into viral "Bible influencer" sketches, the four-panel consistency trick, hybrid LED stages like House of David, and why 22-year-olds are making $500K/year creating AI ads. Plus: why studios should abandon $400M series and make 10 hyper-niche Star Wars shows instead, and how long the ad automation window stays open before tools commoditize and taste becomes the only edge.
