The Painter of Cities is a Melius-built cinematic short about an impossible gilded automaton that paints a living city onto a monumental black wall. From the city he creates, a female droid briefly appears within the painted surface. They reach toward each other, almost touching, before she is reclaimed by the wall.
It is a quiet story about creation, longing, and the tragedy of making something beautiful that cannot fully enter your world.

PROCESS STEPS
The project began with the challenge theme: create something that should exist, but doesn’t.
The core concept became The Painter of Cities: an impossible gilded automaton that paints a living city onto a monumental black wall.
Melius was used to generate sequential image keyframes for the story: the city being painted, the female droid appearing inside the wall, their near-touch, and her return to the painted surface.
The prompts were refined through several iterations to preserve visual continuity across the male droid, female droid, city wall, studio, palette, and old-master oil-paint aesthetic.
Short silent video scenes were generated from the keyframes, then adjusted to control pacing, motion, transitions, and emotional tone.
The video scenes were stitched into a final silent film. An original instrumental music cue was generated to match the final timing and emotional arc of the film.
FEEDBACK ON USING MELIUS
Melius worked best as a visual production canvas rather than a one-shot generator. The node-based workflow made it possible to build the project step by step: image keyframes, video scenes, stitching, music, and final assets.The strongest part was being able to iterate visually and preserve the creative process inside the canvas.The hardest part was controlling motion continuity between generated video clips. Some transitions and character movements required very precise prompting, especially when preserving the same droid designs and painterly world across multiple nodes.
Stunning!
AI-Powered B2B E-commerce Lookbook Generator
As an E-commerce specialist, I often see retail brands struggling to create high-end, "Retail Ready" lifestyle imagery for national buyers quickly. I built this Melius workflow to solve that. It’s an automated canvas that takes raw product images, processes them through specialized AI agents with tailored prompts, and outputs publication-grade B2B lookbook assets in minutes instead of weeks.
My Process Steps:
Input Node: Uploaded base product layouts (e.g., sustainable retail packaging).
Melius Agent Prompting: Configured a creative agent to analyze the asset and apply a high-end, editorial lifestyle background with strict whitespace rules.
Refinement Node: Passed the generated output through an upscaling and color-grading node to match national retail compliance and premium aesthetics.
Feedback on Melius:
Melius completely turns the thrash of traditional prompt-and-pray AI workflows into a structured visual canvas. Being able to see the node-by-node execution allowed me to tweak specific parameters instantly without losing the design direction. The speed at which it generates production-ready imagery is a game-changer for digital marketers and agency owners!
Wow this looks neat and premium! Did you design this using Melius?
I created MINDGUESS AI around a concept I found genuinely fascinating:
“What if an AI could understand what you’re thinking only through small hints and patterns?”
The idea behind the project was to design an AI experience where users give subtle clues about a character, object, animal, or personality, and the AI intelligently predicts what they are thinking about. I wanted the interaction to feel immersive and futuristic, almost like communicating with a digital mind capable of intuition and reasoning.
Instead of building a typical chatbot interface, I focused on creating a cinematic sci-fi experience that visually represents intelligence, prediction, and human-AI connection. Every element on the page, from the glowing holographic UI to the neon atmosphere and live statistics panels, was designed to make users feel like they are interacting with an advanced AI entity rather than a simple guessing game.
The purpose of MINDGUESS AI is not just entertainment, but to explore how AI can interpret human hints, behavior, and decision patterns in an engaging and visually immersive way.
Steps I used for the project:
I designed the complete landing page and futuristic user experience inside Melius, focusing on cyberpunk-inspired visuals, cinematic lighting, holographic interface elements, and immersive composition. I refined multiple prompt variations to achieve the perfect balance between realism, futuristic aesthetics, and interactive storytelling. The entire concept was built around making the AI feel intelligent, mysterious, and alive.
Feedback on my experience using Melius:
Melius made the creative process feel very fluid and experimental, especially while testing different futuristic concepts and visual directions. What I enjoyed most was the ability to iterate quickly and push cinematic design ideas without losing quality. One of the more challenging parts was balancing strong visual effects while still keeping the interface readable and functional, but overall the experience was smooth, inspiring, and highly creative from start to finish.
