Two posters. Everything from Envato — foil texture, font, tape PNGs. Sound design in the video too. One tab.
The build: texture on the background, text in Glanterd, then I brightened the texture, flattened the text and used it as a mask on top. So the foil on the type is the same asset as the background. I also applied the good old BG blur on top for a frosted glass effect.
Human by Design moment: it was done. Technically. And it looked boring. So I went back to Envato — not to fix anything, I just knew it wasn't there yet. Found PNG tapes, dropped a few on, moved them around. That was all it needed. AI would've called version one finished. It wasn't.
Something I'd actually ship to a client.

I come from fashion, so I naturally think in silhouettes, fabrics, movement and story.
For this project, I started with a couture sketch and imagined the full journey of the dress. I used Envato AI to explore several design directions, bring the selected silhouette to life, create the campaign visuals, animate the story and generate the music.
At each stage, the tools opened new possibilities. My role was to choose, refine and connect them into one coherent fashion narrative.
Hey Sarah! Please resubmit with a loom screen recording that talks through your process using Envato to have this submission be valid.
Honey Power is a short AI-animated story about how true strength can sometimes be found in the most unexpected places.
The idea behind the project is simple: natural honey often loses its familiar “perfect” glossy appearance when it crystallizes, but it still preserves its natural qualities. Instead of presenting honey only as a beautiful advertising product, I wanted to tell a small story about its true value.
In this project, I combined AI-generated visuals with original storyboarding and careful editing to bring to life characters that make you want to smile.
Welcome to Honey Power — a place where honey brings not only sweetness, but also confidence with every step.
While creating Honey Power, I wanted to move away from the “perfect” digital image and create something more tangible, lively, and a little bit playful. My goal was to tell a story that doesn’t just look beautiful, but also brings a smile and makes you want to peek through that little window yourself.
Toolset:
Assets & Inspiration: @envato (music, sound effects, references).
Visuals: ImageGen, VideoGen (animation and visual style).
Polishing: Topaz Photo AI, Photoshop (detailing and cleanup).
Audio/Voice: MusicGen, VoiceGen.
Assembly: DaVinci Resolve.
I hope this little story adds a little sweetness and energy to your day!
The crystallized honey metaphor gives the story a surprisingly grounded emotional core. Which scene best communicates the idea that imperfect appearance can still hold real strength?
