Frame Studio

Two original characters, one world. I explore how identity and context hold together when the scene changes.

The design question

How do I keep characters and scenes recognisable?

My choice
I compare clothing, silhouette and posture within the same setting. This lets me assess identity and atmosphere shot by shot.

Character design / visual exploration

Two characters.
A context of my own.

I establish the world and visual direction first. Then I compare how two characters move through the same scenes.

An abstract character gives me room to explore the boundaries. What stays recognisable when the situation changes?

Compare

From scene to scene.

The same setting, a different lead. I compare the moments side by side.

Garage

Red light and a sports car set the tone for both characters.

THE DESIGN QUESTION / FRAME STUDIO

From individual images
to a world of my own.

Designing a scene involves more than a character: its setting, atmosphere and role in the story belong together. With each new shot, I look at what stays recognisable.

These experiments inform the design of my studio. I want to bring my characters, settings and production reviews together in one workspace. The workflows stay behind the scenes.

About this project

Two characters, one world

My anthropomorphic cat character and the masked Cold Flex figure are two different identities. I place them in the same world of garage, bar and loft, exploring what keeps each character recognisable. The comparison is about the relationship between character, appearance and environment.

An abstract character gives me room to explore the limits of image production. For me, an AI influencer does not have to be a realistic human; an original fictional figure can also have a recognisable attitude and story world.

Establishing my own context first

I define the identity, appearance and context in advance. I then use short experiments to assess the characters in motion and in different scenes. Recognition and consistency get my attention first; a larger format or further finishing only makes sense once that foundation works.

From film experiment to workspace

The cat film is a 720p experiment made with Higgsfield. Alongside the Cold Flex film, it lets me compare how two different designs carry the same story world.

These individual experiments inform the design question behind Frame Studio: how do I keep my characters, scenes and assessments together? In my local prototype, I am working on a profile catalogue for varied figures and a coherent film workspace. The Higgsfield film has its own production route.

A catalogue of original figures

Knox, Kairo and Vega each give the Cold Swagger campaign a distinct face. Alongside that cast, I keep very different directions: Francesco as an exaggerated figure study, Mara as a portrait and Mila for character and styling. The catalogue helps me choose a character for a story or atmosphere. These are separate designs and experiments; the two films above retain their own casts.

Image and music

Music is part of my visual work too. I make my own music with FL Studio and Suno, exploring how atmosphere, rhythm and character can reinforce each other.
