An experimental AI-driven film created using Hailou in February 2025.
The project explores the boundaries between machine-generated imagery and cinematic language, focusing on atmosphere, rhythm, and abstraction rather than traditional narrative.
The film was selected as a Semi-Finalist at OMNI: International AI Film Festival, Sydney (October 2025), with a jury led by George Miller (Mad Max), highlighting its relevance within the evolving landscape of AI cinema.
This is an AI UGC video - I created this human avatar + voice without hiring real models.
Hook: 0-1.5 sec smile close-up with watch (emotional hook for female audience) Avatar: Custom AI model - cute, warm, natural - not robotic Edit: DaVinci Resolve + CapCut - clip-by-clip color correction, logo placement, beat sync, no on-screen text
Why AI UGC? ✓ No model fee - saves $200/video for brand ✓ 48 batch delivery (5-10 videos/day) ✓ Perfect for testing product angles fast
This exact style got 1.1M organic views for my watch brand client.
I'm loving the depth of field in this shot, the focus pull from the model's face onto the wrist is a good move and there's some nice background walla/clinking that makes it feel grounded in the first two seconds that gets ducked against the vocals. Still some observations and...
Making complex cybersecurity concepts clear through motion.
For the Doppel Threat Graph product film, I contributed to the visual development and animation. The product connects digital threats across multiple channels, revealing how individual signals form part of a coordinated attack campaign.
The challenge was to translate this technical functionality into a clear visual narrative—showing why the connections between threats matter and how they help reveal the bigger picture.
My work covered storyboard and motion exploration, animation, and scene refinement throughout the feedback process. The focus was on introducing information progressively and guiding attention toward the relationships central to the product’s value.
The result is an animated product film that introduces Doppel Threat Graph and makes its core functionality easier to understand. The project demonstrates how motion design can bring clarity to a complex software product.
