AYORA - A SCENT BEYOND THE ORDINARY
AI Cinematic Luxury Fragrance Campaign
Two fragrances. Two identities. One extraordinary world.
AYORA is an original cinematic fragrance campaign exploring the intersection of luxury branding, Gothic horror, supernatural storytelling, and AI-powered filmmaking.
The film introduces two distinct fragrance identities:
AYDORA - FOR HIM
AYNORA - FOR HER
Through atmospheric Gothic environments, mysterious encounters, supernatural character transformations, and cinematic product presentation, the project transforms a traditional fragrance advertisement into an immersive visual experience.
Creative Direction & Execution
The project involved developing the visual concept, cinematic narrative, character direction, scene composition, lighting, camera language, and AI-assisted video production.
The creative approach focused on:
Building a distinctive cinematic universe.
Maintaining character identity and visual consistency.
Developing a coherent Gothic visual language.
Creating cinematic transitions and supernatural transformations.
Integrating luxury fragrance product visualization into the narrative.

FROM SKETCH TO ANCIENT EGYPT - CAPCUT WORLD LA ✨
What if a drawing could become a world you could step into?
For the #1000WaysToCCW challenge, I created an AI-assisted cinematic journey that begins with an artist in Egypt and transforms into an immersive ancient Egyptian fantasy world before arriving at CapCut World LA.
The film explores the connection between imagination, art, and AI-powered storytelling, bringing together a creative journey, ancient Egyptian-inspired visuals, cinematic transitions, and a magical transformation.
Creative Concept: Turning a drawing into a journey between worlds.
Art Direction: Ancient Egyptian-inspired fantasy, monumental architecture, warm golden light, and cinematic visual storytelling.
AI Filmmaking Workflow: Character and environment development, AI-assisted image and video generation, scene transitions, and final visual assembly.
My goal was to create an unexpected arrival that connects the act of creating with the experience of stepping into a world of imagination.
Created for the CapCut World LA challenge — #1000WaysToCCW.

What if Cleopatra could travel through time and arrive at CapCut World LA in the most unexpected way?
For #1000WaysToCCW, I imagined an ancient Egyptian queen entering a world where imagination has no limits — a cinematic journey powered by a mystical portal, a magnificent golden royal chariot, and the timeless grandeur of ancient Egypt.
This AI-assisted film blends Egyptian-inspired visual storytelling with fantasy, cinematic atmosphere, and a modern creative event.
Creative concept: Reimagining arrival as a journey between worlds.
Visual direction: Ancient Egyptian-inspired fantasy, golden royal aesthetics, turquoise energy, and cinematic lighting.
AI workflow: AI-assisted visual generation and video creation, with creative direction focused on storytelling, atmosphere, and visual continuity.

For this experiment, I developed Neon Harbor, a short sci-fi mystery built around one question: what is sending a mysterious blue signal from beneath an abandoned harbor?
The project explores how a film concept can become a structured visual workflow, connecting:
✦ Story development and synopsis
✦ Character and prop creation
✦ Scene and shot planning
✦ Camera direction, lighting, and color palette
✦ Visual continuity across a three-shot sequence
The visual direction combines cool teal tones, charcoal shadows, atmospheric fog, and restrained cyan-blue highlights to build tension without revealing too much too soon.
My goal with FRAMEFORGE is to make the journey from creative idea to production-ready shot planning feel more cohesive.
The signal is only the beginning.
Built with Base44. Currently a work in progress.
