I created this 15 second SaaS explainer test edit for Storyboard Communications, based on a brief for Pivotree SKU Build.
The challenge was simple but sharp: take a short product script and turn it into a clear visual story in only a few seconds. The service is about making product data cleaner, faster, and easier to use across different sales channels, so I wanted the edit to feel organized, modern, and easy to follow.
Instead of treating it as just animated text, I approached it like a compressed product story. The visual direction moves from raw product data and scattered information into a cleaner, more structured output. I used UI inspired graphics, data cards, subtle motion, transitions, and sound design to make the message feel more polished and easier to understand.
Because the runtime was short, every second had to do something. The pacing needed to feel quick enough for a SaaS explainer, but not so fast that the message gets lost. I focused on clarity, rhythm, brand consistency, and making a technical service feel simple and approachable.
This was a small test edit, but it was a strong exercise in what I enjoy most as a motion designer: turning abstract or technical ideas into visuals that feel clear, professional, and easy to watch.
Curious for founders and marketing teams:
What would you usually budget for a short SaaS explainer like this, especially if it includes motion design, editing, sound design, and visual direction?

Pet Feast! 🐾
I challenged myself to build a casual game using Snapchat's new Easy Lens.
The process started with a simple sketch, followed by a prompt that generated a playable prototype in minutes. From there, I iterated on the gameplay, refined the visuals, added animations and polish, and turned the idea into Pet Feast—a fast-paced game where you feed adorable pets by swiping the right food.
It's a great example of how AI can accelerate prototyping while still leaving room for creative direction and game design decisions.
🎮 Play Pet Feast on Snapchat!

Performance starts long before the first match.
This landing page concept for R1 Padel was designed to capture the energy, precision, and premium quality behind a high-performance padel racket. The goal was to create a bold digital experience that immediately communicates speed, power, and confidence while keeping the product at the center of attention.
The design combines dramatic visuals, strong typography, and a clean interface to deliver an immersive shopping experience for athletes and sports enthusiasts.
Key design highlights:
• a cinematic hero section focused entirely on the product;

• premium product presentation with detailed specifications and feature highlights;
• responsive desktop and mobile layouts for a seamless shopping experience 📱;
• bold call-to-action elements that naturally guide users toward purchase;

theatre rehearsals, but cinematic ౨ৎ ⋆｡˚
For La carta fue un error, I stepped behind the scenes to film the cast during rehearsals and transform the process into a series of Instagram Reels.
I captured the glances, gestures, movement and tiny in-between moments that bring a play to life, then shaped them into intimate, dynamic edits designed for social media ✶

The vertical reel format for something as inherently wide-stage as theatre is a smart translation. Did the cast or the director see the final edits before you posted, and what was their reaction?
