A motion ads is not just about animating Elements,
Just like every content a motion video should be able to
- State a problem.
- expand on the pain point of that problem.
- Reveal a solution
- Proof the solution
- and lastly offer a CTA
To be honest i see why she didn't like your design,
it looks more like a flyer than an IV.
she wanted something that feels ceremonial in a wedding kind of way. what you made, did not match the occasion and is very different from the style she gave.
AI isn't my problem.
The way it's being used is.
Today really messed with my mood.
A client sent me an AI-generated design and asked what I thought. I suggested a redesign, she agreed, and I poured myself into creating something I was genuinely proud of.
I submitted it.
Her reply?
"I don't like it."
I asked what exactly she didn't like so I could improve it.
No response.
That hurt.
Not because the design was rejected, but because I gave it everything and wasn't even told why.
Sometimes it feels like AI isn't ruining design it's changing how people value the craft behind it.
Our salt and sugar bowls are identical. I aggressively emptied generous amounts of what I thought was salt into the pot and mixed everything.
Two minutes later, I noticed the actual salt bowl sitting on the fridge. I had just seasoned our only survival meal with pure Dangote sugar.
My chest immediately tightened. Four sleep-deprived, angry medical students were in the parlor holding spoons like weapons. If I confessed, they would literally harvest my organs right there.
I accepted my fate and served the food, dropped the pot in the center of the room, and stood near the door so I could run.
They attacked the food like wolves. I closed my eyes as I waited for the screams. I was waiting for someone to spit out the sweet Jollof and Beans and throw a heavy chair at me.
Five minutes passed and there was dead silence.
Chuka scraped his plate, looked up with red eyes and said, "Omo. You are a wicked chef. The seasoning is too perfect."
I was paralyzed. I walked back to the kitchen, dipped my finger into the 'sugar' bowl I used, and tasted it.
It was salt.
I opened the second bowl. Also salt.
I went back to the parlor sweating and asked Chuka why we had two identical bowls of salt in the kitchen.
He did not even look up from his plate. He just swallowed and said, "Those ants were always entering the sugar. So I filled both bowls with salt to confuse them."
The internet made it easier to learn skills.
It also made it easier to blend in.
The people getting opportunities aren’t always the most talented.
They’re often the most visible.
