I created Diamond Anaconda, an original cinematic survival thriller produced entirely with AI.
The project follows a team of former special-operations soldiers who venture into a remote tropical island in search of legendary diamonds, only to encounter a massive ancient anaconda protecting what lies beneath the island.
I handled the creative direction and AI production process, including story development, cinematic visual generation, character consistency, creature design, environments, action sequences, compositing, editing, and final film production.
The goal was to create a cinematic experience that feels like a traditional live-action survival movie while using AI throughout the production pipeline.
Tools: Higgsfield, ChatGPT, Claude AI, CapCut
Role: AI Filmmaker / Creative Director / AI Video Creator
Deliverable: 24 minute cinematic AI survival movie.
I’ve been razzmatazzing and flibbertigibbeting with Claude Code and somehow ended up with a new yels.dev.
It finally feels like me: simple on the surface, slightly complicated underneath, and very much alive.
You can see who I am, what I do, the work behind Herodot, RaptorLabs, CyberLink Security and Solmint, plus a selection of projects I’ve built across AI, cybersecurity, Web3, product systems, education, archives, and experimental digital spaces.
The simple-on-the-surface, layered-underneath idea comes through so clearly in the presentation. I especially like how the project archive turns the site into something to explore rather than just a résumé of links.
HYDRUM VEIL is a skincare brand built around a premium SPF 50+ sunscreen, developed as a complete brand identity, packaging design, and seasonal advertising campaign.
The project explores a question most seasonal beauty work gets wrong: how do you make a limited-edition campaign feel festive without making it feel cheap?
Instead of stacking decorative props, the campaign holds a strict visual system - vivid pumpkin orange, deep twilight violet, warm cream, and restrained black and lets a single product carry every frame.
