Creative Exploration — Design, Photography & Animation

Personal Projects & Experiments
Ongoing


Outside of structured campaigns, I regularly experiment with photography, design, and short-form motion graphics. These test studies act as a creative sandbox — spaces where I can explore new aesthetics, push design techniques, and generate content ideas without the pressure of client work. While often playful or abstract, these pieces contribute to my growth as a creator, sharpening my eye for visuals and expanding the toolkit I bring to professional projects.

Core Themes:

  • Visual experimentation

  • Content creation and motion studies

  • Photography as brand texture

  • Design exploration beyond campaigns

Scope of Work:

  • Mobile-based design and animation studies

  • Photography and visual storytelling

  • Short-form content creation tests

  • Design explorations outside client context

Approach & Execution

  • Created animations and design sketches on mobile platforms as quick tests.

  • Shot and edited photos exploring aesthetic themes and brand atmospheres.

  • Designed short-form content to explore audience engagement strategies.

  • Used these experiments as inspiration and proof-of-concept for later campaign work.

Outcomes / Proof:

  • Built a visual archive of experiments that inform larger creative projects.

  • Expanded range of design approaches through low-stakes exploration.

  • Showcased versatility across mediums while maintaining a cohesive aesthetic.
