Title: Review Spotlight: an animated testimonial card you can rebrand in 5 minutes
Idea
Reviews are the cheapest trust a small business has, but most owners never turn them into anything that moves. Review Spotlight is a 4:5 animated testimonial card for feeds and stories. A customer quote, a face, a logo and a star rating land in about five seconds. I made it for the SVGator template challenge to fill a gap: the gallery had a star-rating field but no complete testimonial card.
The process
Research. I read the contest brief against the template gallery, listed what was missing, and picked the idea that scored best on reuse.
Design. One warm palette, DM Serif Display for the quote and Inter for everything else. Both fonts are open-licence, and all shapes and placeholder images are my own.
Build. I built it through the SVGator MCP with Claude and checked each export in a browser. That caught two real bugs: a misread of how SVGator combines origin and translate, and background shapes spilling off the canvas. Both are fixed.
Motion. The card springs in, the quote mark pops, the stars fill one by one, and the photo and ring land last. Two slow background shapes keep it alive after it settles.
Proof. I rebuilt the same file for a second brand without touching the animation.
Built to be reused
Every piece is a named, grouped layer, such as "LOGO - replace this image" and "QUOTE - edit text".
All text is retypeable. The logo and photo are separate image layers, and the photo is cropped to a circle automatically.
Brand colour lives in three fills, and 4 or 5 stars is one keyframe change.
Two videos show one animation on two brands.
Honest limits: the quote needs manual line breaks (4 lines, about 26 characters each), and a bare-number rating needs typing in the editor.

Just added a new project to my portfolio.
This project focused on creating a professional appointment booking landing page using Kajabi, designed to guide visitors from their first interaction with the brand to taking the next step.
The goal was to bring the company's introduction, video content, testimonials, and appointment-booking experience together in one clear, engaging layout.
I focused on creating a clean visual structure, making the information easy to navigate, and giving visitors a straightforward path to schedule an interview.
It's always interesting to see how thoughtful design and the right structure can make a digital experience more effective.
Built with Kajabi.
I would love to hear your thoughts, What stands out to you about this design?

This is a great example of thoughtful design.
🚀 The 3-Second Rule: Does Your Ad Grab Attention?
You have just 3 seconds to make someone stop scrolling.
If your ad doesn't catch attention quickly, potential customers may simply scroll past it.
Here are 4 ways to make your ads stand out:
🎯 1. Start with a Strong Hook
Use a question, problem, or statement that connects with your audience.
👀 2. Use Eye-Catching Visuals
Choose clear, relevant images or videos that stand out.
💬 3. Highlight the Main Benefit
Show people why they should care about your product or service.
👉 4. Add a Clear Call to Action
Tell your audience exactly what to do next.
💡 Remember: An effective ad doesn't just look attractive. It makes the right audience stop, pay attention, and take action.
Question: What catches your attention first in an ad — the headline, image, or video?
#MetaAds #FacebookAds #InstagramAds #DigitalMarketing #AdCreatives #SocialMediaMarketing #MarketingTips
I'd pick the right one. The headline and image split is cleaner and the stats card gives proof right away, the left feels busier with three portraits. Is this template for Webflow?
