# AI Animation Lab

Alongside QA engineering, I create AI animation concepts and short cinematic scenes.

## Focus Areas

- Prompt direction for character mood, camera framing and motion intent.
- Child-friendly visual concepts with clear personality and readable silhouettes.
- Five-second scene planning: opening beat, action beat and closing pose.
- Iteration checks for consistency, timing, lighting and export quality.
- Presentation polish for portfolio-ready demos.

## Public Assets In This Showcase

- `assets/ai-short-reel.mp4`: short AI motion experiment.
- `assets/ai-character-sheet.png`: original child-friendly 3D character sheet with front, side, back, three-quarter and expression views.

## Public Asset Policy

Only original or explicitly shareable assets should be committed here. Generated video files are intentionally ignored by `.gitignore` until each asset is reviewed for public use.

Recommended public naming:

```text
assets/ai-animation-reel.mp4
assets/ai-character-concept.png
```

## QA Crossover

The same discipline applies to creative AI work:

- Define expected result.
- Generate controlled variants.
- Compare output against criteria.
- Keep the best evidence.
- Iterate with clear notes.

This is the same mindset I use in testing: define the expected result, observe the output, document the gap and improve the next iteration.
