Taste Test
Visual identity development for JYLEE, an LA-based alternative R&B artist known for dark, cinematic atmospheres and emotionally honest songwriting. Part of the process was exploring creative directions before locking anything in. Here are two we developed:
Dust Choir: warm, worn, and tactile. Think sun-baked textures and quiet weight. The mood is intimate and haunting, like something beautiful left to weather.
Red Noise: high-contrast and electric. Late-night city energy, wet streets, sharp edges. Tension you can feel.

Hey everyone! Turn a single reference image and a mood description into a complete set of production-ready visual asset, in one run.
What you bring:
A Key Visual reference image that captures the look, palette, or world of your project and a short text describing the film's mood or atmosphere (e.g. "drama, overcast, sci-fi")
What the technique does:
The technique reads both inputs together and builds a cohesive 6-frame storyboard that translates your mood into a visual narrative arc. Each frame is crafted to feel tonally consistent with the reference while expressing a distinct narrative beat. Once the storyboard is complete, every keyframe is exported individually as a standalone image.
What you get is 7 assets total: 1 full storyboard + 6 individually exported keyframes.
Best for: directors, cinematographers, animators, and visual development artists who want to go from concept to a shootable (or pitchable) frame sequence fast, without losing tonal coherence across shots.
Thanks for reading! :)

I go for the white
Fizzbears: A Study in Texture & Motion 🍬⚡
Bringing "sour" to life.
The goal for this Fizzbears spot was simple: make the viewer feel the texture. I focused on the macro details of the sugar crystals and high-energy physics to create a 9-second hook that’s as punchy as the product.
Key Deliverables:
Macro Realism: Pushing for tangible texture in every gummy.
Vibrant Palette: Flavor-coded transitions with a clean, high-end polish.
Rhythmic Edit: Precision-synced sound design for maximum impact.
