About this video
Blacksmithing is one of humanity's oldest professions. The tools have changed - bellows became power hammers: but the smith still exists. Why? Because craft requires judgment, taste, and knowing when something is right. Design works the same way. Introducing Forge - a new AI assistant built into UXPin. Unlike AI tools that generate a starting point and leave you there, Forge works alongside you as your design evolves. You're the smith. Your design system is the anvil. Forge just makes the work faster. The tools change. The craft stays yours. The video was created in 4 stages: B/W storyboard (+stillomatic), Styleframes, Primary Motion and Final Video. The character was animated both with frame-by-frame technique (Animate) and rig-like motion (After Effects) to save some time. The output looks very cinematic and blur keeps focus on the most important elements. I can't say nothing about the budget because it's a long-term co-op.
