Skeen sells skincare online. People shopping for skin products are often unsure and overwhelmed by choices. The homepage has to make them relax first, and only then help them shop.
I kept the layout simple so the eye goes to one place and nothing fights for attention. Then I tested the mood with two backgrounds.
A is neutral grey, so nothing distracts from the product.
B is a warm peach that feels closer to skin and more caring.
Which one would make you trust a skincare brand more?
Two short motion ads for Instaheadshots, an app that turns ordinary selfies into studio-quality professional headshots with AI.
🎬 Ad 1: "Slide to Unlock" (10s)
A product-flow spot. It opens on a glowing slide-to-unlock button, then shows the app's processing and generating screens as a casual selfie becomes a polished headshot. It ends on the brand and a "Try Instaheadshots" CTA.
🎬 Ad 2: "Everyone's Upgrading" (20s)
A social-proof spot. Notification cards stack up as Sarah, Daniel and Priya each post a new profile photo within one week. The punchline is "everyone is using the exact same Instaheadshots to upgrade," which works on FOMO and ends on a clear CTA.
