Art direction–driven creative pipeline leveraging generative AI for style exploration, camera control, and animation, transforming my original digital painting into two visually distinct animated videos, delivered in production-ready formats for social media platforms.

Below are selected examples showcasing how the videos were adapted and reframed for social media platforms.
