A city grows from a single water drop inside a terrarium on the windowsill of a dead world. A ruined skyline un-collapses itself back to golden hour. A boy looks up at something descending — then the cut hits a rocket launching upward and you realize he was watching it leave all along.

From the perspective of a product designer and the one who values clarity and usability, I would vote for Human Design.

Most of my collages are built from dozens of images that I source and combine in Photoshop. But sometimes the exact element I have in mind simply doesn't exist, or I can't find the right angle, lighting, or composition.

That's where AI comes in.

For this piece, I used Envato's AI Image Generator to create a custom starting point when I couldn't find the image I needed. I then combined it with assets from Envato Elements, using Photoshop to composite everything together, refine the lighting, color grade the scene, and create the final artwork.

Once the collage was complete, I used Envato's AI Video Generator to bring it to life with subtle movement, then finished the animation in Premiere Pro using additional Envato Elements assets.

For me, AI isn't about pressing a button and calling it art. It's another creative tool—one that helps me bridge the gap between the idea in my head and the final artwork.
