Check it out New project: "This is a DOG" — AI-Directed Comedy Poster
Designed a comedy poster using Ideogram 4, directing every element's exact placement, sizing, and positioning through box zones. The AI handled the rendering; I handled the creative direction.
The concept plays on typographic hierarchy and comedic timing: "This is a DOG" commands the frame, with the dog planted right in front of the G. Then the afterthought: "...and a cat." The cat gets no fanfare.
Final touchups in Affinity for light levels and minor fixes.
Scroll through for a behind-the-scenes look at the Ideogram Editor showing how each element was placed.

The material quality on the machine body is what stands out - the diffuse/specular balance on that orange surface reads as real. And the pellet simulation inside the globe looks like it took some iteration to get the physics right. Solid Cinema4D craft.
Memory Bank is a private family app designed to capture the small moments that usually get lost.
We take thousands of photos every year, but the little things often disappear: a note before a test, a flower picked on the way home from school, a funny photo of the family cat, or a simple “good luck” message from a parent.
Memory Bank gives families a shared space where they can add photos, notes, and emojis throughout the day. These contributions form a collaborative daily memory that lives on the home screen as a widget.
At midnight, the day’s memory is automatically captured as a Polaroid and saved to a family archive. Over time, families build a collection of memories together, one day at a time.
For this project, I wanted to experiment with a different design workflow.
Instead of starting in Figma, I used Codex and the Build-iOS-App workflow to generate a working Swift prototype first. My goal was to validate the interaction and product flow before investing time in visual design.
Once the concept felt promising, I used Figma MCP to bring the app screens into Figma, where I explored different visual directions, refined the user experience, and iterated on the overall concept.
I then used Figma Make to prototype key interactions and validate the experience before bringing those improvements back into the app.
Finally, I created the launch trailer and supporting assets using Hyperframes, Codex, and Figma MCP, allowing me to iterate on both the visual design and the story as the concept evolved.
The result was a workflow that felt much more fluid than the traditional path of Idea → Design → Prototype → Build.
Instead, the project evolved through a continuous loop of Idea → Prototype → Figma → Prototype → Launch.
Memory Bank started as a Makeathon experiment, but quickly became something I genuinely want to build for my own family.
