SIMIHAZE BeautySocial Art Direction & Content Creation As an up-and-coming brand in the beauty space, SIMIHAZE Cosmetics came to us looking for engaging and dynamic social content for TikTok and Instagram reels, focusing on their two hero products, Velvet Blur and Eye Play. I was responsible for establishing the overall visual direction through storyboarding and defining key visual codes in lighting, shot type, and editing style — and then actualizing that on set. We delivered a set of short form videos highlighting product usage and application.
