2 months of work, packed into one video 🎬

For the last 2 months, I've been building Captyne — a caption plugin for After Effects.

Not another one-click caption tool. This one is built by a motion designer, for motion designers — which means total customization. Every style, every animation, every detail stays in your hands.

And to celebrate the finish line, I just wrapped the promo video. Made entirely in After Effects, of course. It felt right that the plugin's first big moment was created inside the same software it lives in.

Watch it below 👇 and tell me what you think — feedback from fellow motion designers means everything right now.

How do you turn a brand mascot into a visual system people actually remember?

🐆 Our lynx represents sharp thinking, curiosity, and attention to detail. For this motion experiment, we pushed the mark into a softer, unexpected direction - rebuilding it with different textures.

Same identity, different emotion.

Which texture fits the Lynksen identity best - flowers, grass, or something else? 👇✨

I personally love the soft blue and white version the most. Nice to scale it into the brand campaign or ad video 😃

When creating the identity for TATA Arquitetura, my goal wasn't just to design a logo, it was to translate the way Tata creates spaces.

Her work blends modern art, boho influences, and natural materials into environments that feel personal, warm, and full of character. I wanted the brand to express that same feeling.

The visual system was built around modular shapes that connect, separate, and recombine, just like the objects, textures, and elements that come together to shape an interior. Every piece has its own role, but together they create something unique.

This project is a reminder that the strongest identities don't simply decorate a business, they reflect the way it thinks, creates, and connects with people.
