about the project

1 Impulso Diário" was a strategic Instagram experiment designed to apply and validate new social media techniques I had recently studied. The project focused on delivering daily doses of inspiration and motivation, aiming to engage users emotionally while testing content formats, timing, and branding strategies. I developed the visual identity with intention—choosing yellow and purple as complementary primary colors to evoke energy and creativity, and designing a rocket icon to symbolize a quick, uplifting boost for followers.

This initiative allowed me to put branding principles, audience analysis, and content optimization techniques into practice, gaining valuable insights into user behavior and platform dynamics. The hands-on experience strengthened my skills in content strategy, visual storytelling, and performance tracking as a social media analyst.
