AI Image Restoration & Enhancement
Subtle restoration of a scanned analog film photograph, improving sharpness, contrast, and color balance while preserving original film grain, character, and authenticity.
Queue — Visual Identity for an AI Workflow Platform
Queue needed a mark that could carry "AI-powered" without falling into cliché — something sharp enough for a landing page hero, but small enough to hold up as an app icon.
The logomark builds off the Q's negative space: three overlapping arrows forming a spiral, nodding to the product's core idea — data queued and flowing first-in, first-out. Rendered in a high-contrast neon green against near-black, it reads as fast and automated rather than soft and generic-SaaS.
I wanted to tell a short story through animation, atmosphere and cinematic storytelling. The Last Light follows Kaito, a young swordsman returning to the ruins of his village, where a mysterious girl named Ayame reveals that his family’s past is far darker than he imagined.
The project moves through flashbacks, character interactions, supernatural battles and a final confrontation with Lord Akuma... building the story toward a cliffhanger rather than simply ending with the fight.
This was an exploration of 2D animation, character-driven storytelling, cinematic composition and anime-inspired visual direction.
