I built Artist Exchange - a marketplace for users to scout and buy shares in an artist, providing social proof for "I knew them before they blew up". Anchored in a real index based on active listeners, augmented with an AMM, users make trades using play money, competing to get to the top of the leaderboard.

Project:
A promo reel for a real client. A LinkedIn brand consultant who helps serious professionals show up online without the noise.
The Human by Design moment:
I built the loud version first. Big text, fast cuts, hype music. Exactly what a LinkedIn promo is expected to look like. It was competent work. Then I watched it back and deleted it.
Not because it was badly made. Because it was wrong for her. Her clients come to her to get away from that noise. A loud promo would have contradicted the thing she's known for.
AI could generate something polished. It couldn't know that polished was the wrong call for this particular client. I knew, because I built her website and I know her brand.
The decision that carries it:
Her brand has exactly one accent color. So in a 28-second reel, that color appears once, on a single word. Everything else stays calm. AI would have spread it everywhere for "visual interest." Using it once was the whole point.
Envato as the toolkit:
Stock video, music, fonts, and AI-generated textures. All from Envato. Four asset categories in one deliverable.
Real client:
Not a spec project. She's an active consultant, I built her website, and she reviewed and approved this reel.

An orange and dark slate color scheme for a construction company website? Absolute classic, it immediately screams 'we build stuff that lasts!' 🏗️ Clean execution, Vaskrsije!
Been working on this one a while. Multiple background videos, visitors switch between them, UI adapts to whatever's playing.
