View ProjectsBecause Costi Online is a publicly-available website for anybody to see, select videos will either be unavailable to watch or not fully shown. This is to protect the privacy of the actors in the videos and ensure no personal information is released. This means many of the videos I have made (especially from 2011 to 2016) will not be populated. Thank you for understanding.

Pioneer News
9 Episodes
Pioneer News was a 15-minute video presentation that would play during class in high school. Near the end of my senior year, I decided to take over its production. I quickly became known for my work, as I used it as an opportunity to try creating special effects and editing styles.

ASAS Invitation Videos
6 episodes
ASAS is a bi-annual party hosted at my house following each semester at school. ASAS' origins actually can be traced back to early elementary school when my parents and my friends' parents organized small gatherings on the last day of school. Starting in middle school, I began to take initiative and revive these after school hangouts. I created videos for them from 2016 to 2017 (inc).
Amal+
2 episodes, 1 cancelled
Amal+ was where I got the opportunity to expand my skills in video editing and experiment with new ides. There were several segments per episode. Tina and Amal loved making music videos, so that is the most common type.
Costi logo History
View the history of my logos used for internal and external use
Personal Logo
2011 to present
My logo has existed for well over a decade. Conceptualized around 2010, it was inspired by a friend's logo, which was inspired by the Nintendo GameCube logo. Over the years, I have consistently used my logo for personal projects, internal documentation, and publicly facing projects (like this website). Like other vector based artwork I made the time, the first and second logos were made using Macromedia Fireworks 8. This was because I first learned how to use it for my multimedia 1 class in middle school. Eventually, I was given the Adobe CS4 and CS5 suite by my aunt and created my third logo. In High School, I found a way to get the full Adobe Suite for $20 a year, and since Fireworks was discontinued by Adobe, I began to use Adobe Illustrator, which I still use to this day. The 4th Logo was used in my work from 2016 to 2018, until I invented my most recent logo. My newest logo is a lot easier to consume, dense, and aesthetically coherent.
Costi Media Logos
2018 to present
The first normal, non-animated logo used for Costi Media/Entertainment was created in 2018. It was made because I needed a logo for my YouTube channel. The second logo, "E", was created in the same year, along with my new personal logo. This was only used for one project and was not in any videos I made. In 2019, I created the "M" logo and renamed the YouTube channel to Costi Media. This was because the video content I was making at the time was more professional and not only for entertainment. Finally, in 2020, I re-did the logo again in 2020 because I thought the previous one was too plain and unrecognizable.
