You’ve probably seen AI recreate art before.👇 But this project takes it further: 1. Nano-banana → for object and texture generation 2. Seedance → for dynamic motion and scene transitions 3. Kling → for cinematic composition and rendering Together, they turn iconic paintings into a moving story set in modern-day NYC. This creation elevates visual art by stitching together specialized AI models into a coherent creative workflow, where each tool plays a different role in the pipeline. The bigger picture? We’re moving toward a world where AI-native storytelling doesn’t rely on one model, but on orchestration. 👉 How far are we from having a true “creative stack” for AI the way we do for film or design?

🎨 How Soon Can You Recognize Him? 👀 A stunning anatomy-to-portrait transformation that begins with structure and ends in identity — featuring none other than Johnny Depp. Here’s why this drawing process is a powerful design and learning moment 👇 🔹 1. Anatomy as the Foundation of Art The artist starts with a skull study, proving that true realism begins with understanding the structure beneath — a principle every designer and illustrator should master. 🔹 2. Step-by-Step Evolution Each layer — from bone outlines to facial details — highlights the importance of progression, not perfection. Design grows through refinement. 🔹 3. The Power of Observation Capturing likeness isn’t about copying; it’s about seeing proportions, shadows, and forms that make a face recognizable even before it’s finished. 🔹 4. Artistic Patience and Process The piece reminds us that great results come from slow, deliberate craftsmanship, not shortcuts — a key mindset for both artists and designers. 💡 What We Learned: Strong design starts with structure and fundamentals. Observation is a creative superpower — it trains your eye for detail. Every masterpiece is built layer by layer, with intention and care.

Take a closer look at how the VFX team for Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender blended real-life elements with digital effects. Using Leica BLK360 and RTC360 laser scanners, they captured precise spatial data to aid camera tracking and bring the action-packed elemental powers to life on screen.

Your animations might look good—but do they feel right? These 12 principles separate pros from the rest: 🔹 Offset & delay – Create rhythm, not chaos. 🔹 Dolly & zoom – Shift perspective, shift emotion. 🔹 Parallax – Depth isn’t just for 3D movies. 🔹 Masking – Reveal with purpose. 🔹 Obscuration – What you don’t see adds mystery. 🔹 Transformation – Smooth shifts guide the eye. 🔹 Easing – Motion that breathes feels human. 🔹 Cloning – Duplicate to communicate, not confuse. 🔹 Parenting – Anchor movement to meaning. 🔹 Dimensionality – Add layers, not clutter. 🔹 Overlay – Show more without leaving. 🔹 Value change – A subtle shift says everything. Which one do you use most? #motionprinciple #uidesign #uidesigner #motiondesign #motiondesigner

✨ Photoshop Magic: Light Effects in Seconds! ✨ Light can transform an ordinary design into something cinematic and alive. 🌟 It’s not just decoration—it’s a storytelling tool. 💡 What We Learned from This Tutorial: ✔ Light Guides the Eye – Helps control visual hierarchy by directing attention. ✔ Mood Matters – Warm = cozy, cool = mysterious, neon = energetic. ✔ Less is More – Subtle light effects enhance, not overwhelm. ✔ Blend Modes Rule – Overlay, Screen, and Soft Light unlock creative control. ✔ Balance Realism & Creativity – Use natural glows for realism or surreal effects for bold visuals. ✔ Practice Builds Instinct – Tutorials give steps, but experimentation develops intuition. 🔥 Creative Takeaway: Great design doesn’t just look good—it illuminates. Mastering light effects lets you guide attention, set mood, and tell powerful visual stories. 👉 Follow Learn Photoshop with AI for more pro design tutorials, creative hacks, and insider tips to sharpen your skills! #photoshop #adobephotoshop #photoshoptutorial #photoshopmagic #graphicdesign #digitalart #photoediting #creativecloud #photoshopdesign #photoshopped #adobe #gfx #artwork #creativedesign #photoshopartist #visualart #photoshoptricks #designinspiration #digitalartist #photoshopskills #graphicdesignerlife

In my new Rive Rockstar course, we dive deep into combining 3D and 2D workflows. In this project, I show you how to: ✅ Animate a Jeep in Blender using stylized NPR materials ✅ Import it into Rive for real-time interactivity 👉 Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/dfrtzwPA #Rive #Blender3D #MotionDesign #InteractiveDesign #NPR #Animation #UXDesign #RiveRockstar #DesignEducation

PREVIZ AND CONCEPTING WITH ANIMATION 🎥✨ We are constantly evolving how we approach early concepting and storytelling, moving beyond static keyframes and style frames into the world of animated pre-viz and real-time 3D layouts. IMPROVING EARLY WORKFLOWS IN ANIMATION Traditionally, early concept development relied on 2D storyboards or isolated visual explorations. Now, using tools like Unreal Engine and Blender, we can create animated tests and layout sequences that bring narratives to life earlier in the pipeline, allowing teams to explore mood, motion, camera, and effects in context. We leverage our 3D expertise and procedural workflows to build fully realized layout animatics, using real-time rendering to quickly iterate on sequences and experiment with everything from pacing and scene geography to interactive mechanics and visual effects. This approach blends the flexibility of traditional 3D animation with the speed and power of game engine tools, letting us create animated visualizations that are richer and more detailed than 2D animatics alone. Whether we’re blocking out action, testing a lighting scenario, or previewing a sequence with VFX, Unreal lets us turn ideas into immersive, editable scenes in a matter of days–not weeks! This shift in process gives creative teams a clearer view of the narrative early on, making space for smarter decisions and more ambitious storytelling before anything hits final production. From game trailers and vertical slices to cinematic storytelling and experimental concepting, we’re reimagining what early animation and previz can look like when it’s driven by real-time tools and a 3D-first mindset. Curious to find out how we can make your previz workflows more efficient and creatively interesting?
