I built NOIR & BLADE, a premium appointment booking experience for a fictional Dubai barbershop. The goal was to remove the back-and-forth of calls and messages by letting customers choose a service, barber, date and available time, then confirm their appointment in a simple flow. Customers can also retrieve, reschedule or cancel bookings, while the owner dashboard brings appointments, schedules and booking management into one place. I focused on making the experience feel like a real premium brand while keeping the booking journey fast and intuitive.

The demo flow in the screenshots reads really naturally, and recommending cuts by face shape is a clever touch that makes it feel personal rather than robotic. Have you seen it reduce no-shows in practice yet?
Shadow Goes First (Ep.10 of my CapCut World LA series). An editor is stuck at her desk at 2 a.m. watching the export bar crawl, her CapCut World LA badge hanging on the lamp. She gives up and puts her head down. Her shadow doesn't: it takes the badge off the wall, peels itself off the plaster like a paper cut-out and travels through the LA night to the main stage. The spotlight snaps on, the shadow stands up and fills with color. Back home the export hits 100%, she looks at the empty wall: "Save me a seat." Hand-painted noir animation, made in CapCut Video Studio and the CapCut editor.
