The system is the work. I build creative production pipelines for AI video, product UI, and real-time 3D.

AI is only as good as the creative system behind it. I design the structure — visual rules, production logic, templates, and workflows — so the next job is faster than the last.

From brief to production system.

My work is focused on building repeatable creative pipelines, not one-off assets. I use AI, automation, design tools, scripting, and 3D workflows to create systems for video production, product storytelling, publishing, brand consistency, and immersive media.

01

Design the system

Define the story, interface, structure, visual rules, and production logic.

02

Prototype and generate

Use AI, 3D, scripting, and design tools to create controlled variations, consistent assets, UI screens, motion references, and production-ready content.

03

Produce the output

Assemble final videos, decks, landing pages, books, dashboards, and reusable workflows.

A practical workflow from idea to finished system.

01

Define the creative goal

Clarify audience, message, output format, constraints, and success criteria.

02

Design the system

Create the structure: story flow, UI, visual language, prompt logic, data model, or production pipeline.

03

Generate and prototype

Use AI, 3D, scripting, and design tools to rapidly produce controlled variations.

04

Refine for consistency

Create character sheets, environment references, style guides, templates, and reusable rules.

05

Produce the final output

Assemble videos, pages, decks, interfaces, books, or production assets.

06

Make it repeatable

Document the process so the workflow can scale beyond one asset or one campaign.

AI Creative Production Systems — Character, Environment & Shot Pipelines

Built repeatable AI-assisted workflows for creating consistent characters, environments, and video-shot stills before transforming them into video and post-production assets.

Standard AI generation breaks character and environment consistency across sessions — built a reference architecture that pins visual rules so any generation step produces on-system results. Reduced shot production cycle from brief to ready-for-edit across 3+ campaigns. Reusable reference pack held visual consistency across 20+ characters and 4 environment systems.

Render-to-Video Pipeline — 3D Asset Automation + Scalable Motion System

Built a repeatable production pipeline that transforms 3D models and rendered image variations into animated video assets at scale. The system combines 3D production, scripted render batching, AI-assisted motion and audio prompting, spreadsheet-driven automation, image-to-video generation, and After Effects template assembly to reduce manual production time and improve consistency across large video batches.

Production Pipeline

Brief→3D Asset Creation→Look Development→Render Variations→Motion & Audio Prompting→Image-to-Video Generation→After Effects Batch Assembly

Reduced repetitive manual production work by systemizing the full path from 3D render to final video. What previously required a full day of manual work per asset now runs as a repeatable, data-driven pipeline capable of generating large volumes of consistent animated content while preserving creative control over characters, visuals, motion, audio direction, and final composition.

Brand Design System — Visual Framework + Repeatable Templates

Developed a repeatable brand design system that transforms an initial brief and logo exploration into a structured, scalable visual language. Workflow combines Illustrator-based logo development, visual rule creation, Claude Code documentation, Claude Design templates, and systematic application across documents and brand assets.

Turned a brand concept into a scalable design system covering logo direction, visual rules, style guide documentation, reusable templates, and consistent application across all documents and visual touchpoints. The system-first approach — rules before assets — means any team member can extend the brand without breaking it. Rejected the common logo + colour palette approach in favour of a documented token layer that governs every output.

Style-Consistent Image Generation — ComfyUI Print Pipeline

Two ComfyUI workflows that produce coloring-book interiors and matching covers in a fixed visual style. A prompt styler, an SDXL checkpoint and a small LoRA stack set the look; a second sampling pass, line clean-up and model upscaling take each image to print resolution. Every page in a book comes out of the same graph, so the style holds from the first page to the last.

Production Pipeline

Prompt Styler→SDXL + LoRA Stack→Latent Upscale Re-sample→Levels & Sharpen→Model Upscale→Print Export

Style drift is the usual problem with AI-illustrated books: page 12 stops looking like page 1. Here the look lives in the graph, not the prompt. The styler template, checkpoint and LoRA weights are fixed, so only the subject changes between pages. I also revived and cleaned up older workflows: fixed missing nodes and models after node-pack updates, removed dead branches, and laid each graph out in four readable stages.

AI Film Shot-Review System — Sheet-Driven Director Review

A review tool for an AI-generated film. The shot list lives in a Google Sheet; the review page reads it, shows every shot with its generated takes, and lets the director approve, flag or reject each take and request a re-generation with a note. Decisions write straight back to the sheet, so production always works from one list.

Production Pipeline

Shot Tracker (Sheet)→Prompt + Style Line→Kling Generation→Review UI→Director Decision→Sheet Write-back→Editorial Export

Every take sits next to the prompt that made it, and each decision is recorded in the sheet production already works from. There is no backend and no build step: it is one HTML file the team can open anywhere. The screenshots use invented demo data; the real production is under NDA.

GTM Analytics & Content Operations Platform

An internal platform for planning, approving and measuring marketing work. It brings GA4, Search Console and LinkedIn data into one dashboard, and puts the content calendar, approval flow, UTM-tracked campaign links, hashtag library and SEO action list in the same place. It runs on Cloudflare Workers with D1 and R2, behind Cloudflare Access.

Production Pipeline

GA4 + Search Console + LinkedIn→Daily Sync / Import→D1→Dashboards→Plan & Approve→Publish→Measure

GA4, Search Console and LinkedIn share one date range with period-over-period comparison, and each post is tied to its campaign and tracked link, so planning and results sit side by side. The screenshots use a synthetic dataset; the live instance is private.

Creative technologist and visual systems designer based in Portugal.

I'm Sérgio Azevedo, a creative technologist and senior visual artist working across AI-assisted production, UI/UX, real-time 3D, XR, automation, and visual systems.

My background in 3D and immersive learning shaped how I work: visual quality matters, but so does repeatability, performance, structure, and delivery. Today, I apply that production mindset to AI-assisted video, product storytelling, brand systems, and interactive experiences.

I believe AI is only as good as the creative system behind it. The prompt is a detail — the real work is the structure: visual rules, reference packs, production logic, and templates that make the next job faster than the last.
