Project Overview
Thou ART is a hybrid art education system with creative studio apps, teacher tools, and a smart easel that digitizes student work for grading, editing, and portfolio curation. Unlike traditional art class, students can start with hands-on materials and seamlessly transition their work into digital form.
Testing Concepts
I met with several teachers and parents and captured their sentiments about three different concepts that all follow the prescribed design principals. These are the three concepts.
AI Prototyping
The product was prototyped through an AI-first creative workflow. I began by generating visual concepts in Firefly, Midjourney, and DALL·E, then composited and refined the artwork in Photoshop. These assets were sequenced and animated using AI-driven video tools in Runway before being brought into After Effects for motion editing and sequencing. This pipeline allowed me to rapidly visualize the product experience, explore multiple creative directions, and produce a high-fidelity video prototype far faster than a traditional production process.
