I help creators and small teams stay organized after the edit β handling uploads, metadata, scheduling, and content workflows so they can focus on creating.
Outside of work, I love experimenting with new productivity tools, building small projects just for fun, and exploring creative ways to turn ideas into action.
In 2026, my goal is to help at least 10 creators scale their content output without the stress of post-edit chaos. Excited to learn, collaborate, and grow with this community!
I heard ClickUp is a sophisticated tool with a bunch of different features that might replace other apps. Does it feel smooth and intuitive? Isn't it overcomplicated?
Great question β thatβs honestly the main criticism of ClickUp.
It can feel overcomplicated if you try to use everything at once. Where it works best (in my experience) is when you deliberately strip it back and use it for one or two core workflows only.
Nice to meet you, Richard π
What youβre doing is genuinely valuable, post-edit chaos is one of those hidden bottlenecks creators donβt realize is holding them back until itβs handled properly.
Thatβs exactly it. Most creators donβt notice the bottleneck because it sits after the creative work, but once itβs organized properly everything downstream moves faster.
Always interesting to see how small systems changes unlock a lot of momentum.
My process always starts messy. There's no clean line from idea to finished piece, just a rough, half-formed feeling I have to sit with until it starts making sense.
For this project β a new visual concept for an Italian artisanal liqueur brand β that's exactly how it went.
Step 1: ideation and rough ideas. I began with scattered notes, mood fragments. Nothing usable yet. Even Even my AI assistants got lost trying to make sense of my notes.
Step 2: character references. Once the tone started to settle, I moved on to building visual references for the characters, figuring out who would inhabit this world and how they should look and move.
Step 3: the full storyboard. From there, the whole sequence came together: frame by frame, the story finally had a shape.
Now I'm at the next stage. Turning that storyboard into an actual video. It's early days on this one (I only recently started working this way on @FLORA and I already used all the credits. I'll have to improve my workflow).
