Kids don’t defeat fear by reading advice.

They understand it better when they can see it, shape it, shrink it, rename it, and laugh at it.

That’s the idea behind Monster Movie Studio — a cinematic interactive cartoon experience where children turn big fears into funny little animated monsters.

Instead of building another dashboard or basic kids app, I wanted this to feel like a playable cartoon episode.

A child can:

→ create a clay-like 3D monster → choose what made the monster feel big → drag magical tools onto it → direct a tiny cartoon scene → shrink the scary shadow → turn a roar into music → make the monster dance → transform it into a tiny helper → print a movie poster → share a gentle parent note

The whole experience is designed around one principle:

Every action should speak.

Not just buttons. Not static cards. Not a form with cute colors.

A tap should change the scene. A drag should transform the monster. A completed action should feel cinematic. A child should feel like they are directing a tiny animated movie.

Built with Figma Make for the Config Makeathon.

Monster Movie Studio — turn big fears into funny little cartoons.

Love how visual this feels. Not a normal app, more like an interactive animated experience.

SPOT THE BOT, a gallery game about telling human creativity from a machine's

The problem. AI can now create almost anything, and for designers that's not abstract. The fear is that taste, judgment, the human "tell" in a piece of work no longer counts for anything. So instead of arguing about it, we made a game out of it.

The idea. Everyone gets the same prompt ("give beige a personality," "what keeps you up at 3am"), the same fixed kit of pieces, and 30 seconds. So does an AI. Every tile lands on a gallery wall, and players vote: which one is the bot? Then comes the reveal: who fooled you, and who you fooled. The constraint is the whole point. When everyone has identical pieces, the only thing separating the tiles is taste, wit, and choice, the human stuff. Right now the bot fools 72% of players, and every round feeds that number: a live, accumulating measure of where human judgment still holds the line.

The build & workflow. Designed and built end to end in the Figma ecosystem: the editor, the real-time multiplayer rounds (MAKE, VOTE, REVEAL), and the MUSEUM of every player-made tile. The asset kits (risograph, torn paper, duct tape, liquid metal, and more) were generated with Weavy.ai. It's recursive by design: a game about spotting machine-made art, built with the machine's own creative tools. The medium is the argument.
