Creative Strategist | AI-Concept & Creative Direction
New to Contra
Cherry is ready for their next project!
Made 3 AI videos for a Contra × CapCut challenge.
Submitted exactly 0. Very on brand 😂
Anywayyy… instead of letting them die quietly in my folder, I’m posting them here.
This one is “We Envy Each Other.” 💅🏻💄
I’m not an AI-video expert and I’m definitely not trying to become an AI-tool encyclopedia.
I’m a creative strategist who gets a little too excited when a weird idea in my head can suddenly become something you can actually see.
That’s the part of AI I love.
It shortens the distance between:
“wait… I have an idea”
and
“okay look at this 👀”
But the tool is still the tool.
The interesting part is the human stuff behind it, the observation, taste, story, emotion, judgment… all the tiny decisions that make something feel like something.
So lowkey this is also my hello to the creative people here 🫶
Tell me where this works — and where it loses you.
Story? pacing? visuals? ending?
Don’t be too polite. I actually want the notes 📝 ✨

THE CRUMBLING TOWER 🔩🏗️
What could one loose bolt destroy?
The Crumbling Tower is a 30-second continuous cinematic AI film created in CapCut Seedance 2.5 using 9 visual references and a time-coded prompt.
The concept began with a simple commercial storytelling question: how do you make something as ordinary and easy to overlook as a bolt feel emotionally important?
The film starts with a massive skyscraper that appears almost indestructible. One loose bolt triggers a crack, then a full structural collapse. As the destruction resolves, the scale suddenly changes and reveals the truth: the tower is only a miniature model on a wooden desk, watched by two laughing boys and their mother.
The twist reframes the bolt from a small industrial component into a symbol of safety, trust, responsibility, and the small connections that protect what matters most.
Because every small connection matters.
Creative approach
I used a contrast between large-scale destruction and an intimate family reveal to make the message understandable without directly explaining it. The goal was to create a commercial-style story where the product idea is felt through consequence and emotion rather than exposition.
Workflow:
Research → concept development → story structure → 9 visual references → time-coded prompt → test generations → identify continuity failures → refine character and object guidance → final Seedance 2.5 generation.
The reference set was designed to control the tower, loose bolt, spreading crack, collapse, debris, the two boys, the architect/mother identity, and the final family hug.
I also used continuity rules to keep the architect identity, the boys’ faces and clothing, the miniature tower scale, lighting, and cinematic style consistent throughout the single generated sequence.
The final film was generated as one continuous 30-second take in Seedance 2.5 at 16:9, 720p, then exported through CapCut.
Created for the @Contra HQ × @CapCut Seedance 2.5 Challenge.
