Hot take: kids' content shouldn't feel like kids' content.
A lot of children's campaigns fall into the same trap: bright colors, upbeat music and polished footage that feels more like an ad about kids than something that actually captures them.
🎬 For this campaign, the goal was simple: make it feel like being there.
We turned 2 days of chaotic multi-camera footage + 4 unsynced lav mics into a 15+ asset campaign built around:
— Punchy pacing
— Real sound: chopping, sizzling, laughter
— Smooth slow-motion mixed with real-time moments
— Hand-reframed 9:16 edits
The first rough cut was approved with zero tonal revisions.
What started as a test edit became the full 5-part system + an ongoing North American retainer.
👀 Do you think kids' campaigns should feel polished or feel real?

Who needs an invitation when you have a little imagination and a lot of fantasy?
That's how I got to the CapCut World LA event at the Audrey Irmas Pavilion. The trip was... intense! 🦄
This is my entry for the new Contra × CapCut challenge.
My workflow:
① I created the character sheet and the prop sheet for the mushroom, as well as the location sheets for a nature landscape and the Audrey Irmas Pavilion.
② I created still shots using my internal AI image generation tool.
③ I created trippy 2D/3D animated images to use as the opening frames of the videos.
④ I imported all the images into the CapCut Video Studio and used the CapCut AI to animate them.
⑤ I created the music in ElevenLabs/ElevenMusic.
⑥ I edited the videos using DaVinci Resolve.
