The biggest myth about hiring a Book Cover Designer & Formatter Ezekiel
Formatting an ebook is as simple as saving a Word document as a PDF."
The truth: Print-ready PDFs require specific trim size bleeds, embedded fonts, and CMYK color profiles, while ebooks require reflowable ePub files. Standard PDFs uploaded to KDP result in cropped text, rejection errors, and unreadable screens.
If you're a self-publishing business looking for a Book Cover Designer & Formatter experienced in Canva, send me a DM to get started.

LUMIXA — Gaming Controller Product Landing Page 🎮⚡
LUMIXA is a futuristic product landing page concept created for a premium gaming controller built around precision, performance, and immersive play.
The goal was to make the product itself the center of the experience while giving the interface a clean, high-tech character. A minimal white canvas, electric blue accents, oversized typography, and detailed 3D product visuals create a strong gaming aesthetic without making the page feel overloaded.
Special attention was given to:
• a product-first hero section with the controller as the main visual focus;
• bold typography and asymmetric composition to create a sense of movement;
• key product information like pricing, control level, and social proof placed directly within the buying journey;
• interactive-style product hotspots that emphasize the controller’s technology and features;
• gaming imagery integrated into the interface without distracting from the product;
• a clear Buy Now CTA designed to stay visually prominent;
• a responsive mobile experience that keeps the same futuristic identity on smaller screens 📱;
• a simplified mobile navigation for quick access to technology, experience, and pricing.
The result is a sharp, product-focused eCommerce experience that combines gaming energy with premium product presentation — designed to make the controller feel as advanced as the technology behind it. ✨
Looking to launch a gaming or tech product with a digital experience that actually feels like the product? Let’s build it. 🚀
Looks amazing! 🔥

People don’t see what happens before the final animation.
It starts with the STORY, understanding the message and how we want the audience to experience it
Then comes the STORYBOARD one of the most important parts of the process. Every scene is planned out: composition, transitions, camera movement, pacing, and how each shot connects to the next.
Great animation starts long before the first keyframe
