Water, texture, and light, reframed as a moment of reflection. This piece was about finding rhythm in stillness letting color grading and sound carry the emotion instead of cuts.

Amazing shot! 🚀
A product can be powerful and still be difficult to understand.
For this concept, the product had a lot going on.
My job was to simplify it without making the product feel simple.
I focused on:
→ finding the core value
→ removing unnecessary information
→ creating a clear visual story
→ using motion to make the product instantly understandable
Here are 4 frames from the concept.
I make product, launch and feature videos for SaaS and AI companies — turning complex products into simple, exciting stories.
Really inspiring work! 🌈
Claude + After effects (Here’s the exact 5 prompts, copy them) 🧵
Prompt 0: Setup
Approach: Computer Use - from now, henceforth.
Setup: After Effects is open on Screen 2.
Goal: Configure the project and create 4 working comps, named Scene 1 through Scene 4, before anything is built. All 4 comps use the settings below.
Project settings:
Color depth: 16 bpc
Linear blending on Comp settings:
Resolution: 2880x1620, square pixels
Frame rate: 30fps
Background: warm Don't ask any questions. Build.
Prompt 1: Plan the radial scene
Setup: Same project and comp. Plexus installed. Reference: Sketch
(see first comment for the sketch btw).
Goal: A radial plexus matching the sketch. All vertices start at a single centre point and spread outward in 3D. Lines grow from the centre to each endpoint. Each endpoint carries a different image. Camera with depth of field.
Reading the sketch:
The circle is the origin. Every line starts there, none connect to each other.
Line lengths and angles vary on purpose. Keep that irregularity, don't make it a perfect starburst.
The sketch is 2D, but the build is 3D. Some lines should push toward and away from camera, not just across the frame. Current state: Nothing built for this scene yet. Constraints:
Do not touch the project. Planning only, no computer use. Approach: Consider the best possible way of achieving this. It should be able to be edited realtime as well. Prioritize using plexus Output: A recommended approach with reasons. I'll approve before you build.

Prompt 2: Animate Scene 1 line connections
(i went back to creating the first scene)
Setup: Switch to the Scene 1 comp. Park the Scene 2 plan, we'll return to it.
Goal: Lines animate their connections, drawing from one vertex to the...
