I edited this short reel from an Octane AI initiated webinar collaboration with Skio, featuring Nick Belanger discussing the concept of Surprise and Delight in subscription ecommerce.
The goal was to turn a webinar moment into a clear, engaging, and platform ready short form video. I focused on clean pacing, bold captions, orange keyword highlights, supporting ecommerce visuals, and simple motion elements to make the key idea easy to understand in a short social format.
The direction was built around preserving the value of the original webinar while making it more accessible for social audiences. Instead of treating it like a full product demo, the edit functions as a partner thought leadership reel that highlights one strong insight from the conversation.
The key message was simple: brands can create stronger customer moments by adding personalized gifts, discounts, or small surprises based on customer behavior.

This is our team submission (Me, Megg, and Anna) to the Rive x Contra Interactive Character Animation Challenge. It’s a tamagotchi inspired experience based off of Moomin, Megg’s american bully dog. Moomin isn’t my dog but I’ve played with him, hand fed him, and took turns in potty training him. And boy does potty training a puppy sure does take a lot of patience, and I mean a LOT. Moomin’s a good boy, sometimes a naughty boy, and sometimes a bad boy. I’m not a dog person and the experience has been a little bit frustrating (especially when Moomin refuses to listen 🙄), but also rewarding, and overall sparks joy. And that’s the goal of this Rive app, to share that whole experience with Moomin to anyone who plays around with the app. We tried to capture Moomin’s mannerisms when he eats, when you pat him, and he really does flop to the ground when he refuses to listen. We wanted to make the digital Moomin feel as alive as possible. And if we’ve done our jobs well, we hope you’ll be so engaged that you forget it’s an app, and feel like he’s a real digital pet.
I’m not sure if we can win the challenge because there are a lot of amazing entries (but hopefully we do, and Moomin gets a share, of course, if we win) but even if we don’t, if we’re able to make people playing with the app feel a spark of joy in a world that feels uncertain as ever, then I feel like we’ve already won.

We’ve made this specifically for the challenge, so we didn’t have the time to optimize for a mobile experience. This is only optimized for the desktop experience.
Hope you’ll enjoy the experience, and let me know what you think in the comments.
Really nice

After watching videos on Instagram from different content creators showcasing interactive websites, I wanted to try it myself.
My goal is to create an interactive portfolio featuring all the AI images and videos I've created over the past two years. Of course, I could ask Claude or Antigravity to build a story-scrolling experience with different animations, but I think this approach offers a new and more exciting way to present my work and immerse viewers in my creations.
This is only the first step.
If anyone knows any good resources or YouTube channels, please let me know!
and u did good in your 1st step ...really impressing

I gave her a call earlier. She told me what it takes to make good character animation... I've been taking notes
