This week I'm working on 👇
- 42 content assets for a long term client
- Adding projects to our portfolio
- Connecting with freelancers and agencies for referral projects (and to become friends 🤭)
- Finishing up a launch content project
- Doing a trial video editing project
- Working on my second business with my team + hopefully getting my Business Number so I can do more bureaucracy 🫠
These are some important taks among the hundreds I usually end up doing during the week! I've found that working from Spain again has helped my productivity so much 💪
Great. Keep it up for success.
That’s a thoughtful mix of production work and portfolio-building. I especially like the emphasis on finishing a launch piece while keeping the longer-term system moving—great way to protect momentum.
Killing it 🔥

Attention, Contra people🚨
Only proceed if you're in the mood for a laugh😅
A while ago, I was working with a client who needed lots of video ads every month. And by "lots," I mean 36 videos, 3 hooks each, 2 formats.
That's 216 files. Every. Single. Month.
Sounds like a lot, but we were ready.
THEN... things got interesting.
40 videos. 5 hooks each. 3 formats. Yep, SIX HUNDRED.
In 2 weeks.
And what did we tell the client? "Pff... two weeks? Easy."
Turns out, I was a little too optimistic🙃
This took us over a month. Not exactly our proudest moment.
But hey, that little disaster pushed us to rethink our workflow.
And the system we built? It eventually allowed us to deliver
150 files in just 7 calendar days.
Have you ever underestimated a project's timeline and regretted it later?

The one I experienced was when a client gave me a project and provided a reference she wanted me to use as inspiration to build her website. I quoted her 10-14 days, but she said she needed it done in 5 days. I accepted it because I was desperate to get the project and I needed...
Looking Back: My First AI Creation — April 2026
Before I began developing structured AI-assisted production workflows, I was experimenting and discovering what these tools could do.
This concert-style music video featuring Lisa Dean was one of my very first AI creations, made using Luma AI in April 2026. I brought a character I had created in a wrestling game into an AI-generated concert setting and explored how I could combine visuals, music, and atmosphere into a performance.
At the time, I was learning through experimentation, testing possibilities, and discovering both the creative potential and limitations of AI.
Looking back at this project reminds me how far my creative process has evolved since those early experiments. It remains an important milestone in my journey as a character creator and visual storyteller.
Every creative journey starts somewhere. This is where mine began.

Still nice regardless
Happy Monday! ☕️
Starting the week with lots of new projects, and honestly, I’m excited to get into them.
Looks like it’s going to be a busy one 😅
What’s on your plate this week?
