YouPay | Premium Fintech Advertising Campaign
Designed a high-end fintech advertising concept for YouPay, focused on communicating trust, security, global payments, and effortless everyday transactions.
The creative direction combines cinematic product photography, premium financial aesthetics, dramatic lighting, metallic textures, and refined typography to create the visual language of an established global payments brand.
I developed the concept around the debit card as the hero product, using realistic reflections, controlled highlights, depth, and a sophisticated dark environment to give the campaign a premium, enterprise-level feel.

Day 8/30 of designing one hero section every day.
Today: Cerro, a single-origin coffee brand. And after three days of building reveal mechanics, this one has almost no interaction at all.
→ The photograph is the design. An overhead shot of a picker at work, dark glossy foliage, red cherries. My only job was to not get in its way.
→ The light does the layout for me. The image funnels attention to the center, so the type sits in the shadowed edges where it doesn't compete. No scrims, no overlays needed.
→ The only motion is an entrance: the wordmark alone on empty plants, then the picker fades in.

A new hero section every day for 30 days is a brutal pace. Eight days in, is it getting harder to avoid repeating yourself, or is the constraint actually making ideas come faster?
What if the whisky-making process became the artwork?

Barrel staves become monumental sculptures. Their curves carry through the collector’s packaging and a 15-second film. Explore four moments from the project here, then discover the complete visual identity and campaign in the case study.
Self-initiated concept for a fictional Brazilian single malt. Creative direction, brand identity and AI-assisted visual development by Mauricio Pontual.

The way the barrel curves carry all the way through to the packaging is such a tight through line. Since this was self-initiated, did the sculptural direction come first and the 15 second film get built around it, or were they developed side by side?
Made a thinking animation for an AI chat two weeks ago. The client's logo only had the capybara in profile — so I asked @QuiverAI for a front view, polished it, and rigged it in SVG with Claude Code. It turns, it doesn't rotate.
Super cool haha! 😍
