Cover image for Less than 8 hours. One
Less than 8 hours. One clear direction. Great branding isn't about exploring hundreds of ideas. It's about making the right decisions early. This concept went from brief to creative direction in less than 8 hours. After 15+ years, I've learned that speed comes from clarity, not shortcuts. That's what I enjoy most: helping founders find the right direction before a single pixel is refined. Here's how I usually approach a new brand: 1. Understand the vision Align with the founder's goals, audience and what the brand needs to communicate. 2. Define the right creative territory Identify the strongest references and establish a clear visual direction before designing. 3. Explore the identity Develop logo concepts, typography and the visual language until the strongest solution emerges. 4. Build a cohesive brand direction Turn that vision into a creative system that can grow into a complete brand experience. How do you approach the first stage of a branding project? I'm currently available for brand identity, creative direction, web design & development. Open to: • Full-time remote roles • Long-term freelance collaborations • Direct client projects

Cover image for AN ODE TO IMPERFECTIONS -
AN ODE TO IMPERFECTIONS - Making Of I wanted to create something that felt... human. A film that celebrates the little imperfections that make us who we are. So here's how I made it. First came the idea.I spent time thinking, sketching, and exploring different directions before landing on a simple thought:Our imperfections aren't flaws—they're our fingerprint. Once the concept felt right, I built a visual moodboard.I collected references, explored color, cinematography, typography, and pacing until the film had a clear emotional direction. Then came the script. Every line was rewritten multiple times until it sounded less like advertising and more like a quiet observation.Next, I generated the voiceover using Envato's AI Voice Generator, aiming for a natural, understated performance that let the words breathe. Music was just as important. Instead of an epic trailer score, I searched through Envato's massive audio library and chose a minimal classical piano piece that complemented the emotion without overpowering it. Then came my favorite part. I explored Envato's Video and Effects libraries, searching through hundreds of clips to build a visual story—finding moments that felt authentic, textured, and unmistakably human. With everything ready, I moved into Adobe Premiere Pro. This is where the film truly came to life. Editing. Timing. Rhythm. Matching visuals to the voice and music. Shaping emotion frame by frame. To finish it, I added subtle transition overlays, cinematic LUTs, and a touch of film grain from Envato to give everything a cohesive, tactile feel. And that's it. From a simple idea...to a finished film. Because AI can generate possibilities- but it's still the human choices that shape the story. Human by Design.

Cover image for MINITEL DU SUD — La
MINITEL DU SUD — La légende se reconnecte 🖥️📞 The idea: what if France's heritage sportswear house revived the Minitel — the terminal that connected millions of French homes from 1982 to 2012 — the way a maison reissues an archive icon? Making it real: a numbered edition of 50, hand-restored in Marseille, with a full campaign world, a working storefront, and a soundtrack — built end-to-end on Squarespace 7.1 / Fluid Engine. How Finish Layer made it real: Font Uploads — a custom pixel typeface as the "machine voice": title, ticker, teletext annotations. No code injection. Block layering — the serif headline interrupted by the machine; the campaign broadcasting inside the terminal's screen, video layered under the frame. Pinned hero text — the composition holds through the scroll. Block Animations — hover reveals hide edition serials behind the campaign cards (N° 07/50 — RÉSERVÉ). Block Hiding (Mobile) — desktop gets the theater; mobile gets a streamlined vertical flow. Beyond the layout: a fully functional storefront built with real commerce settings — 50 units in inventory, limit 1 per order, so the scarcity story is enforced by the system, not just the copy. (Concept project: nothing ships, no payments are processed — the store demonstrates the commerce build.) Plus an original French-electronic track — the hold music of 1990, composed for the terminals — closing with a scroll-scaled banner: « MONTE LE SON. » Toolkit: Midjourney (campaign imagery, locked style refs) · Departure Mono by Helena Zhang (SIL OFL) · Suno (soundtrack) · SquareKicker (window reveal, horizontal scroll, scroll-scale banner) 🔗 minitel-contra.squarespace.com (http://minitel-contra.squarespace.com) — password: 3615 (the dial code, of course) Projet conceptuel — not affiliated with Orange S.A. Minitel is a trademark of its respective owner. #squarespacechallenge

Cover image for For this challenge, I wanted
For this challenge, I wanted to create more than just a logo or a promotional asset. I wanted to build the foundation of a brand. Runner Community is a concept for a global community where runners can discover races, connect with local running communities, and find inspiration through events, training, and shared experiences. To bring the idea to life, I used Envato Elements as my primary creative toolkit, including: AI Image Generator AI Video Generator AI Mockups Website Templates Video Templates Music Sound Effects These resources helped me rapidly explore ideas and create professional visual assets. I refined the prompts, selected different visual styles, adjusted the color palette, rejected multiple AI-generated concepts, and curated only the assets that aligned with the brand I envisioned. I also chose the pacing, music, mockups, and final promotional sequence to create an energetic yet approachable identity. Breakdown provided in the comments.

Cover image for oof! finally able to share
oof! finally able to share the final piece!! if you haven't been keeping up with my updates: ⭐ on day 1 I brainstormed alongside Gemini, merging my ideas with theirs and ending up with an outline of what I wanted to do for this challenge ⭐ day 2 I collected the raw footage I filmed and started putting together a folder with all my assets ⭐ day 3 I dove into Envato for the first time in years and found stock video, music and sfx, and used AI to alter both one of my own clips and a stock one ⭐ day 4 was for the final touches, where I recorded the voiceover and put all the other assets together into the video you can see below - my final submission! (I also attached a screenshot of what my final project folder looked like - organized by source of each asset) my biggest AI win was definitely the clip where I asked it to replace my water bottle with the coffee machine and it mimicked my rings and tattoos without me even asking my AI flop, where I decided to intervene because AI just didn't do it justice, was the voiceover - it just felt off and emotionless, and instead of trying to tweak it to perfection I decided to just pick up the mic and do it myself! I'm also gonna be sharing this final video on my Instagram @freelancingwithsilvia - feel free to follow me there for all the freelancing vibes 🤩

Cover image for Terra — AI Environmental Risk
Terra — AI Environmental Risk Platform Designed the landing page and product UI for Terra — a platform that helps land developers and engineering teams see environmental risk (soil stability, tree canopy loss, water table depth) before breaking ground. The challenge: Development decisions are usually based on estimates, not real ground data — and by the time issues show up, it’s often too late to reverse them. The interface needed to make complex sensor/AI data feel immediate and trustworthy, without losing emotional weight. The solution: Raw, organic photography (wildflowers, grass, natural terrain) paired with clean glass-panel data cards — creating a visual tension between “nature” and “precision engineering.” Bold editorial typography carries the emotional message, while translucent metric cards surface real numbers: soil stability, canopy loss %, water table depth. A strong example of turning dense environmental data into something a non-technical stakeholder can understand in seconds.

Cover image for Apocrypha: Human by Design For the
Apocrypha: Human by Design For the EnvatoChallenge, I wanted to explore a different relationship between AI and creativity. I created Apocrypha, a collectible card universe where every artifact begins as an AI-assisted concept but only becomes part of the archive through human taste, creative direction, and design. Instead of asking AI to create finished pieces, I used Envato as the main creative toolkit throughout the entire project. I explored its stock image and video library to build moodboards, collect textures, study compositions, and define the visual language of the world. I also used Envato AI to generate concepts for characters, artifacts, and environments, then refined, combined, and reworked them into a cohesive universe. Some of the concepts were even manually painted over to push them beyond the original AI output. Alongside the cards, I designed ArchiveOS, a living creative bible where I organize collections, lore, references, prompts, and every creative decision behind the project. It became the place where the entire world of Apocrypha could grow consistently. The biggest creative decision wasn't generating images. It was deciding what deserved to exist. Knowing when an idea felt wrong, when an artwork needed more work, when a concept should evolve, or when it should be discarded completely. AI gave me possibilities, but every final artifact exists because of human judgment. I'd love to hear what you think about this approach to AI-assisted worldbuilding.
