Hey everyone, this is my submission for the @Rive HMI Challenge: NEURAL ROBOT CONTROL.
This project explores a system where a human can remotely operate a maintenance robot inside a radioactive reactor core — an environment too dangerous for direct interaction. The robot acts as a...
As a designer, I feel like I constantly need to keep up with new tools and products, if only to keep my "has a computer replaced me already?" anxiety under control
At first, we expected AI to do everything with one click
Then we moved on to writing ridiculously long and detailed prompts
And now I feel like we're finally getting to a healthier place with our expectations: build a good system → get good results
I went to play with Recraft's new Logo Maker to see if AI can actually make decent logos now
Weeeeell, you can see the result for yourself! 🤩
Sure, it's not a magic button that reads your mind and does everything for you. But if you have a clear sense of your brand's style and personality, the results can be surprisingly good
Left - my usual aesthetic. Right - Recraft's take on me
So, what do you think of my one-click logo?
Does it feel like me? 🪩✨
Something & Nothing - a spec film for Yuzu Premium Soda
“Yoga in the morning. Raving at night.”
That’s how Something & Nothing’s co-founders describe the idea behind their brand: modern contradiction, the pull between wellness and hedonism we all live with. It shaped their name and their scales logo. I wanted it to shape the film too.
So the story is built on their name.
Morning is nothing: silence, sunlight, a slow stretch.
Night is something: bass, strobes, a packed floor.
One can belongs to both.
A quiet Japanese morning (a nod to Yuzu’s origin) keeps getting interrupted by a party that flickers in. The can stays in exactly the same place through every flicker, the one thing that doesn’t change between the two worlds.
Approach
Concept built on the brand’s own positioning and name, not a generic product ad
Visual language taken from their identity: bright geometric light, colour blocking, art-led calm
Match cuts and flickers, with the can held in place across both worlds
Character and product consistency across 10+ shots
Sound design that switches hard between birdsong and club bass
Tools: Nano Banana Pro & Google Flow (stills), Seedance 2.5 & Veo 3.1 (motion), plus the edit, sound design and grade.
