Design

Creating video and animation assets faster

AI helps produce product, lifestyle, and model imagery plus controlled video and animation for social content, paid ads, ecommerce, and motion assets more quickly.

Why the human is still essential here

The designer still defines the creative direction, selects what fits the brand, and refines outputs so the final motion work feels intentional rather than generic.

How people use this

AI product pack shots

AI generates polished product and lifestyle scenes that a designer can adapt into ecommerce hero images and campaign visuals in far less time than a traditional shoot.

Midjourney / Adobe Firefly

Image-to-video ad loops

Designers turn still concepts or product renders into short motion clips for paid social and landing pages without building every frame by hand.

Runway / Kling 3.0

Social motion cutdowns

AI helps create multiple short-format animated variations of the same concept for reels, stories, and ad placements from one master asset set.

Personal Story

AI isn't replacing my work, its expanding it

AI isn't replacing my work, its expanding it

The last year completely changed how I work as a designer:
I’ve upskilled. Expanded what I offer. Sharpened my approach. Reduced my timelines.

And honestly grown more in the last year than the previous 5 combined.

What’s wild is not just the growth, it’s what I’m now able to offer solo.

Things I never imagined doing on my own:

1. Video and animation
Now a huge part of my work
Social content, paid ads, ecommerce
High-end pack shots and scroll stopping motion

2. Website development
From brand guidelines to wireframes to fully functioning sites

3. App prototyping
Taking ideas from rough concepts to something founders can actually show investors

4. AI-generated brand asset systems
Hundreds of on-brand visuals and videos for campaigns and content

5.Deep research and strategy
Competitive landscapes and creative direction baked into the work

The reality is simple

AI has pushed me into full E2E creative

Strategy → Brand → Execution → Rollout

All done in weeks, not months

At a fraction of what a mid-sized agency would cost

Here’s the stack I actually use daily:
• Nano Banana 2
For hyper-real product, lifestyle, and model imagery

• Kling 3.0
Best for controlled, high-quality video and animation

• Grok
More experimental, looser creative outputs

• Loveable
For prototyping apps, websites, and product ideas

• ChatGPT
Prompting, structuring ideas, research
• Canva
Client-ready templates and presentations

• Figma
Web design, structure, and handoff

• Adobe Illustrator
Still the core for logos and vector work

Year one of freelancing has been a bit mad
Can’t wait to see what year two looks like...
