Contra Verified project: After Effects and Premiere Pro MOGRT templates for an AI data center.
Logo animation, animated map, lower thirds and stats auto-resize as you type, so the team can edit videos without a motion designer.
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.
Refreshing my portfolio and revisiting one of my favorite projects from 2025 🧡💙
Bilsoft has made accounting software for over 20 years, and 100,000+ businesses use it every day. When we started, the trust was there, but the brand had grown piece by piece until it looked like several different companies.
The tricky part was a tension most fintech brands face. The software has to feel precise and serious, but the people using it are small business owners who just want things to be simple. So I drew the wordmark on a strict grid and softened every corner. The name does the rest: “Bil” means knowing, “Soft” means steady. Then I built it into a system the team could use without a designer in the room.
While putting the case study together, I added something new: a motion piece where the logo builds itself letter by letter.
Curious how others here handle this: when a client’s product is serious but their users want simple, which way do you lean? 👇
