Ummah Media Group
Your week 13 capstone: produce UMG's first brick-style (Lego-style) AI explainer video. This is a single-soldier mission and counts as your final internship deliverable plus a portfolio piece.
The goal is a 45 second vertical (9:16) video that explains UmmahJobs (ummahjobs.com), our Muslim job board, in the toy-brick / minifigure aesthetic. You will also confirm the production method works end to end and recommend the tool stack so UMG can make these videos regularly.
Reward: a $50.00 cash bounty plus 250 UmmahPoints, released when your submission is approved.
Grading is 50/50: half is the finished sample video (the part anyone can generate with AI prompts), and half is your creativity and taste. We want an original concept, a story, and visual judgment, not a generic AI clip.

PRODUCTION METHOD
Use any AI text-to-video tool that can produce a convincing brick/minifigure aesthetic. Recommended options (pick one or combine):
- Kling AI or Hailuo (motion quality, accepts reference images)
- Runway Gen-3 (creative control)
- Pika Labs (fast iteration)
- Luma Dream Machine (realistic motion)
For the brick aesthetic, use a reference image of LEGO-style characters + environment prompts. Style guide keywords: "LEGO minifigure style, plastic toy brick environment, colorful, clean, studio lighting, product animation."
