Who needs an invitation when you have a little imagination and a lot of fantasy?
That's how I got to the CapCut World LA event at the Audrey Irmas Pavilion. The trip was... intense! 🦄
This is my entry for the new Contra × CapCut challenge.
My workflow:
① I created the character sheet and the prop sheet for the mushroom, as well as the location sheets for a nature landscape and the Audrey Irmas Pavilion.
② I created still shots using my internal AI image generation tool.
③ I created trippy 2D/3D animated images to use as the opening frames of the videos.
④ I imported all the images into the CapCut Video Studio and used the CapCut AI to animate them.
⑤ I created the music in ElevenLabs/ElevenMusic.
⑥ I edited the videos using DaVinci Resolve.
From Pharaoh Cafe to Hollywood - My LA Dream!
This is the full 60s journey of Mazen in white galabiya - from getting lost in Giza desert, sucked into sand vortex, falling into Pharaoh Cafe where Anubis is waiter, his chair transforms into balloon and flies him to LA to dance with palm trees and DTLA skyline behind! All made in CapCut Video Studio, character locked, 6 scenes.

AI video is not about pressing generate.
It’s about controlling the direction before anything moves.
This short beauty concept was built from:
• one veeeeeeeery detailed prompt
• 8 reference frames
• basic editing and polish in Photoshop and After Effects
The interesting part for me is not that AI can make a video.
It’s that you can start directing it with a clear visual system:
• same color language,
• same model mood,
• same product world,
• same campaign feeling across stills and motion.
That’s where AI gets useful for brands.
Not as a random generator, but as a way to prototype campaign ideas faster, test visual directions earlier and turn static concepts into motion without a full production setup.
Tools:
• Magnific (Nano Banana 2 + Seedance 2.0)
• Adobe (Photoshop + After Effect)
