I love Envato. I used to make loads of After Effects promo videos back in 2016 using their Envato Elements library. I'm glad they're all in on generative AI now. As soon as I signed up for the contest, I wanted to do a quick promo for the challenge. I had to wait for the weekend because of work, but in the meantime I was gathering assets in the workspace. Looking around the Envato library kept giving me ideas, and that quick promo turned into a 60-second video built from what I found browsing Envato: Stock references became characters, then the music, voiceover, fonts, and transitions all came from their big-ass library.
I think discovery is the most relevant "Human by Design" moment... not correcting a mistake or a design change. We do that too when we collaborate with other people, but discovery is an exclusively human sport. We are the curators of taste, the creative funnel of inspiration. Yes, tools make it faster, and we can now follow every spark to create whatever we want. But that inspiration comes mostly from the need for constant discovery in our ever-changing world. It is beautiful.
