Transcript

Can you turn a $1 lighter into a luxury brand in just one night? I teamed up with Adobe Firefly to find out. And first, I shot the lighter from all angles actually best actually felt right. And then I designed the actual look of the lighter and created various images, product and lifestyle shots. And those images I then brought to life. And next, with all the content ready, I designed the website and graphics. And with the whole brand locked in, I jumped into After Effects and built a full promo edit. I am really impressed with the outcome. Let me know what you think. And you can comment epic and I will send you the full workflow and prompt guide.
