Nikola Todorovic of Wonder Dynamics to Speak at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 AI Stage
TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 returns to Moscone West in San Francisco from October 27–29, gathering over 10,000 startup founders and venture capital leaders to explore the next wave of technological innovation. The discussions around artificial intelligence go far beyond technical details—they are imaginative, story-driven, and truly transformative. That’s exactly why Nikola Todorovic will be taking the AI Stage.
A visual effects expert turned AI innovator, Todorovic co-founded Wonder Dynamics, now part of Autodesk. Together with actor-producer Tye Sheridan, he introduced Autodesk Flow Studio (previously Wonder Studio), an AI-powered platform that enables filmmakers to incorporate 3D characters effortlessly into live-action footage. Using cloud-based automation, the system handles intricate tasks like lighting, animation, and compositing, offering a dramatically faster and more affordable route to premium visual effects.

Where film meets AI
Todorovic’s path to this stage has been unconventional—and that's what makes his perspective so valuable. As an award-winning filmmaker and VFX supervisor, he has long navigated the crossroads of creative narrative and digital innovation. This background inspired Wonder Dynamics, a company dedicated to enhancing artistic capabilities rather than replacing them. Autodesk’s acquisition of the startup in 2024 affirmed the strength of that mission, and today Todorovic is influencing the evolution of creative AI within one of the tech world’s most established platforms.
At Disrupt, he’ll sit among fellow AI pioneers for a dynamic discussion covering emerging trends—from generative AI and ethical considerations to the evolution of creative workflows. Keep an eye on the constantly updated Disrupt agenda for scheduling news. Todorovic’s session promises to cut through the hype and focus on the tangible ways AI is reshaping media and other industries.
Be there alongside 10,000 tech and investment leaders at the AI Stage of TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 to gain insights from Nikola Todorovic and other top minds defining the future of AI. The event takes place October 27–29 at San Francisco’s Moscone West. Secure your pass now to save as much as $675 before rates increase.
