Motion Graphics & Graphic Design: Phyla

Phyla is an acne skincare brand focused on Gen Z and Millennials. As a Junior Visual Designer, I designed motion graphics and 3D assets for paid social campaigns across Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.

Role: Junior Multimedia Designer (Graphic & 3D)

Tools: After Effects, Premiere Pro, Photoshop, Maya

Duration: 7 months

Design Goal:

Capture attention within the first three seconds

  • Make complex microbiome science feel friendly and easy to understand

  • Refresh ads weekly based on performance data

  • Strengthen brand consistency across all paid media

Deliverables: Motion graphic ads for Instagram, Facebook & TikTok, including 30-sec / 15-sec / square / vertical versions, along with 3D asset design and refresh cycles.

Design Approach:

Each week, I met with the marketing lead to review engagement results and identify patterns in what performed well.

Key insights included:

  • Short, direct hooks consistently performed better than longer intros

  • Viewers preferred visuals that felt clean and soft rather than overly clinical

  • Subtle 3D elements reinforced the microbiome theme without distracting from the message

  • A/B tests showed that strong contrast in the opening frame increased click-through rates

These findings guided how I refined new ad variations each week.

The key message “Millions of Phages in a Bottle” highlighted Phyla’s microbiome-based technology for acne-prone skin.

My role as a visual designer was to visually communicate the power of phages in a clear and approachable way, helping customers understand how the technology would works on their skin and why it matters.
