High-End Fashion: Building Reality from Scratch with AI
I wanted to show how professional visual assets can be built from the ground up without a big budget or a studio. I acted as the model and the creator for this entire series.
How I built it:
The Base: I started with a simple, clear ID photo of myself.
Custom Assets: I created the clothing designs and the environment backgrounds from zero using various AI engines.
The Mix: I used Nano Banana Pro to blend my selfie with the new clothes and backgrounds into one seamless image.
Final Polish: I used Photoshop to fix the lighting and make sure the textures looked real and high-end.
This project is a perfect example of how I can take a basic image and transform it into a professional brand asset.

I built a website where the only interaction is waiting.
No buttons. No scroll. No clicks. You just stay. The longer you stay, the more it reveals — poetry, meaning, beauty. And then it all disappears. Because nothing is permanent. Not even the things you earned by being patient.
Your cursor becomes a flashlight into the past — briefly illuminating what was there. But you can never see the whole thing again.
Still Here — built for the Figma Makeathon.
A screen that asks for nothing but your presence.

Animation has to capture the brand's premium cinematic and creative look, as well as be loopable and within 4-8 seconds.
MCF Studio came to me with a clear brief: build a website that holds its own next to the work they produce.
They're a creative studio. Their clients have high standards. The site had to match.
A few things that drove every decision:
The portfolio needed to feel intentional, not just a grid. Each project deserved weight.
The animations had to add meaning, not just movement. Every transition tells you something about how MCF thinks.
Nothing generic. A creative studio with a generic website is a contradiction.
End result: a site that positions MCF exactly where they want to be.
