Hi. I’m Vince Warne, an artist and designer interested in narrative, technology, and film.. After graduating from Wesleyan, I worked in the film industry until COVID-19 hit, then joined Interlace Inc, a Lightspeed-funded startup, as Creative Director. After leaving Interlace I created, marketed, and sold an NFT artwork for 17 ETH earlier this year.
Since then, I’ve done illustration and animation for clients including The Browser Company, Lexus, and Starling Labs. I’ve previously worked with the agency Diamond Hook Media as an art director on photo+video shoots for Squatty Potty and Obviously. I’ve also worked as an art director, animator, and set dresser on feature films and shorts which have gone on to premiere at Sundance and Locarno.
I’m passionate about film, and film writing; I am an editor at The Millennium Film Journal and have been published in Film Comment Magazine. I post daily AI-generated artwork imagining movies that don’t exist on an Instagram called Fourth Eye Film Archive, the successor to an interactive website I built early in the pandemic to raise money for shuttered theaters.
I’m currently seeking a full-time position in NYC or remote, in a role related to design, branding, and/or art direction. Drop me a line if you’d like to chat.
In 2020, I created concept art and storyboards for the upcoming French short film Tandem by Alexandre Leter. It was scheduled to be shot in Paris in 2020, but has been rescheduled indefinitely due to COVID-19.
Squatty Potty: Obsession (2020)
In January 2020, I created this animatic for Squatty Potty’s Obsession social media ad.
Hug a Hotdog? (2020)
In 2020, I storyboarded this short film shot for the Straight 8 Film Festival. The film all had to be shot on one roll of super 8 film with no editing, so the storyboarding was an essential step in planning out the shoot and devloping the film’s style.
Squatty Potty Cleopatra (2019)
In November 2019, I created this animatic for Squatty Potty’s Cleopatra social media ad.

I’m passionate about film and film writing; I’m an editor at The Millennium Film Journal, and have been published in Film Comment Magazine. As an artist I’ve been doing illustration for a long time, and I’ve recently become interested in AI text-to-image generation–I write about it on Substack, create experimental AI video art, and make AI-assisted movie artwork on Fourth Eye Film Archive, the successor to an interactive website I built early in the pandemic to raise money for shuttered theaters.
