Typography in animated videos goes beyond simply selecting the right font. It plays a crucial role in determining:

• where the viewer looks • what they remember • how long they stay • whether they keep scrolling or stop

In explainer videos, typography serves as a second narrator. The movement, spacing, timing, and scale all influence how the message is perceived. Sometimes, a simple word animation can have a greater impact than a complex 3D scene.

Created a short video exploring typography styles used in motion graphics and explainer videos.

Which typography style grabs your attention the fastest?

Before & After: Photo Restoration for Sareena

This is what happens when a real creative uses AI as a tool, not a crutch.

I worked with Indian model Sareena to restore vintage photos and edit reels that actually feel human. The before shots were faded, damaged, and low-res. The after? Clean, vibrant, and true to who she is.

AI helped with some of the heavy lifting (upscaling, noise reduction), but every creative decision was mine. Color grading, composition, retouching, the final look: all hand-directed. That's the difference between AI-generated work and work where AI answers to a designer.

Tools used: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Premiere Pro, ChatGPT (as an assistant, not the artist).

High-Converting Skincare Website

Designed a premium skincare ecommerce website focused on creating a clean, luxurious, and conversion-driven shopping experience. The project highlighted modern beauty branding, engaging product presentation, promotional sections, customer testimonials, and mobile-responsive layouts tailored for skincare and cosmetics collections. The design was crafted to improve product visibility, increase customer trust, and enhance overall user engagement through elegant visuals and strategic content placement. The client initially preferred to keep the project private, but after recognizing the value of strong portfolio exposure and professional presentation, the final design was approved for showcase due to the quality and effectiveness of the result.
