Introducing AI-Powered Scholarship Guidance Platform 𝐀𝐈 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐭

Proud to present AI Scholar Hunt, my Final Year Project developed with 𝐌. 𝐓𝐚𝐲𝐲𝐚𝐛 𝐙𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐢𝐫 at Khwaja Fareed University of Engineering & Information Technology (KFUEIT).

𝐀𝐈 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐭is an intelligent platform designed to simplify the international scholarship journey for students through the power of Artificial Intelligence, NLP, and Generative AI.

𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐀𝐩𝐩: https://asad-aziz-ai-scholar-hunt.hf.space/

✨𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐅𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐬: • 🤖 AI Chatbot for scholarship-related guidance • 📄 Smart document checklist generation • 🎯 Personalized scholarship recommendations • 📊 ATS Resume Analyzer with improvement suggestions • ⏰ Deadline tracking & application reminders • ⚖️ Scholarship comparison module • 🔐 Secure user authentication & profile management

🛠 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐭 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡: Python • Flask • SQLite • Generative AI • RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) • NLP • HTML • CSS • JavaScript

🎯 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦 𝐖𝐞’𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠: Many students struggle to understand scholarship requirements and often rely on expensive consultants. 𝐀𝐈 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐭 provides a smart, affordable, and accessible solution—helping students prepare documents, evaluate eligibility, and discover opportunities with confidence.

💡𝐕𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: To empower students worldwide with intelligent scholarship guidance and make global education opportunities more accessible.

Interesting platform 👍 How can it contextualize itself for users coming from various backgrounds?

I created THE GIFT because the most devastating love stories deserve to be felt, not just remembered.

O. Henry wrote "The Gift of the Magi" in 1905, and most people know the ending before they finish the first paragraph. Yet I had never seen it made into something that stops your breath. I wanted to create a cinematic experience that makes the audience who already knows the story feel it as if for the first time, and the audience who doesn't feel something they cannot name until the very last frame.

What if we watched two people stand quietly in the ruins of their devotion, and simply refused to look away? That question became THE GIFT.

The Production Workflow

I came into this project with a vision but no pipeline. The Melius canvas workflow changed that completely, making something overwhelmingly complex feel creative and alive.

Audio-Driven Pacing: The original score was generated and structured with a strict tempo map in Suno, ranging from a 60 BPM cold open to a 140 BPM climax. Every visual decision followed the music, not the other way around.

Master Character Seeding: To ensure 1905 period accuracy and strict character continuity across every scene, I generated a single Master Character Reference node and wired it into every subsequent generation. The candlelit amber interiors, the cold blue gaslit streets, and the period film grain stayed consistent throughout without manual intervention.

Extensive Agent Use: I did not just execute instructions. I conversed with the Melius agent. It helped select the right models for the right moments, we even redid the whole canvas midway and restructured, as instead of more nodes, more important was the structure, matched the visual grammar to the emotional register of each scene, and made intelligent decisions I had not anticipated. I was not managing tools. I was directing a film.

The Assembly: Melius built the continuous, high-fidelity scene blocks the trailer required. I then brought those outputs into CapCut to execute the rapid sub-second flash cuts that match the music's climax, where the cuts land.

Platform Feedback

What moved me most was how Melius held the entire world together without me having to manually navigate the technical layer underneath, it took less than 3 hours on this. It chose what each moment needed and delivered it with a consistency that felt less like a platform and more like a collaborator who understood the story.

One honest piece of feedback: producing a continuous 2.5 minute cinematic trailer with these state of the art models requires a lot of iterative generation. A higher credit tier or more optimised rendering costs for long-form visual storytellers would make a meaningful difference for projects at this scale.

Ultimately, Melius helped me protect the silence at the end of the film when every instinct said to fill it. That restraint is where the whole story lives. A Final Note: I am a software engineer by trade, with zero professional background in filmmaking or the video industry. I came into this project with a feeling I wanted to convey, but no traditional pipeline to execute it. The fact that I was able to direct a period drama of this fidelity is the greatest testament I can give to Melius. https://app.melius.com/projects/1a8d974e-4f5b-4647-844e-adb87b9c5573/canvas/69eb2820-9998-47e3-8059-3bf0450c1290 https://x.com/AshishSandhu/status/2056490013378986101?s=20

Loved the storytelling!!
