The ₦5 Million is a cinematic 3D animated storytelling project created to demonstrate my ability to combine AI-generated visuals, storytelling, editing, sound, pacing, and emotional direction into a complete video.
I developed the visual storytelling around Nigerian characters and environments, using cinematic compositions, character-driven scenes, emotional expressions, and modern Nigerian settings to create a story that keeps viewers engaged from beginning to end.

Is AI finally good enough to shoot a product demo on its own, or human touch is still needed?
I generated a 20s product demo with Seedance 2.5 in a single take providing it with one product image reference and an example video transcript (posted in the comments).

I used to think the secret to better AI video was writing longer prompts.
This project changed how I approach prompting.
I took one of my actual Seedance 2.5 prompts and broke it apart. What looked like one detailed prompt was actually several different shots, camera movements,...
Built a 3D model viewer inside @Rive .
Not a plugin, not an embed — an actual glTF renderer running on @Rive 's GPU Canvas, written in Luau and WGSL, living inside the .riv file.
Drop in a .glb and it loads, lights, animates and orbits. Every control is a data-bound property, so the whole scene is drivable from a state machine, a timeline, or app code. Nothing is hardcoded to one model.
What's in it:
• glTF parsing written from scratch — Luau has no JSON library, so the decoder is hand-rolled
• PBR shading (Cook-Torrance GGX) with key/fill/rim lighting
• Skeletal skinning, 128-joint palette
• Rigid node animation with full keyframe interpolation
• Orbit camera with per-axis locks
• Auto-fit, so any model frames correctly regardless of authored scale
• ~40 data-bound properties: camera, transform, material, animation
Most of it was built by driving the Rive editor over its MCP server with Claude Code — scripted, not clicked.
Runtime support is nearly there. GPU Canvas landed in the web runtime last week. A couple of scripting APIs still need to follow before this can ship to a live site.

the 3D viewer is so cool. nice work!
