I know I missed quite a number of posts here… but that doesn’t mean I stopped working. Sometimes you step back from posting because you’re deep in building, learning, testing, and improving behind the scenes. And that’s exactly what I’ve been doing. Growth isn’t always loud. Sometimes it’s silent discipline. Now I’m back, more focused and intentional, especially with my ecommerce journey and creative growth. Who else has had a “quiet but productive” season lately? 🙌

Creative clearance has been granted to: @Vanessa McCray @Contona Martin @Felicia Mckinney @Cecilia Webb You don’t enter the Digi Collective by accident.

Alright directors… Where you at? 👀 Time to flex those creative brains. This isn’t “make something cool.” This is “say EVERYTHING in one image” Create a movie cover that tells a full story at a glance. Not random. A cover that instantly communicates: • the genre • the mood • the emotion • the story Because this is how real movies and high-converting ads get sold before a single scene plays. Yeah, I said it 😌 🎥 The Challenge Create ONE AI movie cover or poster. It can be: • a fake movie • a short film concept • a brand turned into a movie • a personal story • a documentary idea Think Netflix thumbnail. Think cinema poster. Think billboard that makes people stop! If it doesn’t make someone curious in 0.5 seconds… redo it. 🎬 How to Enter Drop your cover in the comments. Add a short line explaining the story behind it.

Quick question Digi Fam?! If there was a global Ai action scene challenge with a $500,000 prize pool would you step up? It aligns perfectly with what we’ve been practicing inside The Digi Collective! 📽 Cinematic storytelling. 📽 Structured pacing. 📽 Lighting. 📽 Originality 🏆 Prize Pool • 1st Place: $150,000 • 2nd Place: $100,000 • 3rd Place: $50,000 • 20 Honorable Mentions: $10,000 each Deadline is February 15th! That means if you’re serious… we move now! I’m not dropping all the details yet. First I want to see who’s actually ready to compete. If you’re in, drop 🎬 below.

Two years ago, I wasn’t “established.” I didn’t have case studies stacked. Ai was releasing video options and I was pushing it to the max! I had initiative. And a willingness to pitch. I created a music video using Kling’s very first model (yes… that early 😅). It wasn’t perfect. It wasn’t cutting-edge by today’s standards! It was simply proof of skill. Here’s what I did next and this is the part I want you to pay attention to 👀 I found an independent artist online whose music I genuinely liked. I used ChatGPT to help me write a simple pitch explaining: ✔️ What AI video animation could do for her brand. ✔️How visual storytelling boosts visibility. ✔️Why this kind of content helps artists stand out without big-label budgets. I sent the pitch. She replied and asked to see my work. I sent the video. She loved it. Asked my price. I made a quick $199. No website. No big audience. No “authority positioning.” Just value + action! That was portfolio-building season. And it paid off. Fast forward to now… My brand is more established. My skills are sharper. And AI tools are lightyears ahead of what I used back then. Which means this ⬇️ 👉 If I could do that two years ago with early tools… 👉 You can do even more now with better tech, clearer positioning, and smarter pitching. This is your reminder that: You don’t need permission to pitch You don’t need to be “known” to get paid You build credibility by doing, not waiting Portfolios are built in motion! Confidence comes after action not before. And income follows people who stop waiting to feel ready! Post the work. Send the pitch. Let the results catch up.
