QuickFrame is a video creation platform that connects brands with video creators to produce short-form video. I designed a tool that made it easier for brands to share their creative vision, enabling our creators to bring those ideas to life.

The Problem

Our video briefs were outdated and left too much room for interpretation. Brands struggled to articulate their vision, and creators lacked the visual context to nail the desired vibe and style. Brands requesting their videos to be 'sleek' left our creators guessing, and inspirational videos hardly helped either. Because of this, revisions often piled up, pulling focus away from new clients and slowed our business down.

To help brands communicate their creative vision, we introduced the concept editor, a new way to build briefs around references and context.

01

Businesses are able to highlight one or multiple words that with the intent of attaching a visual example.

02

From the highlight, they're shown relevant photo & video examples to choose from. They can even upload an example too.

Once an example is selected, businesses are given an option to explain the rational behind the selection.

After the example and description are submitted, the word that was highlighted is now interactable on hover.

By helping brands communicate their creative vision more clearly upfront, the concept editor reduced the number of projects requiring three or more revision rounds by an average of 27%.

Conclusion

Looking back, this project taught me that better collaboration is not about collecting more information. It is about helping people communicate the right information at the right time. Every iteration brought us closer to that goal, from restructuring the brief into storyboards to surfacing references automatically and eventually connecting them directly to the words they supported. Each solution addressed a different pain point, but together they created a much clearer way for brands to express their creative vision. It is still one of my favorite projects because it was never about adding more features. It was about reducing ambiguity and making creative collaboration feel more natural.
