Raul Braz
I’m a product, motion and visual designer from Fortaleza, Brazil. For more than eight years I’ve shaped digital products, the design systems behind them and the motion that brings them to life, mostly for sports, entertainment and media brands, working remotely with international teams.
Today I’m a senior visual designer at MoveUp Media, where I look after the identity of 14 brands across more than ten markets and design the products, campaigns and motion around them. Before that, I spent three and a half years as design manager at Odds Scanner, leading a team of eight designers across nine sports and iGaming products.

What I do
Product design
Flows, interfaces and prototypes for web and mobile, from sports platforms to games. I stay close to engineering until the build matches the design.
Design systems
Shared foundations for growth, engineering and marketing: tokens, components and templates that keep many brands consistent without slowing anyone down.
Motion design
Product films, broadcast packages and brand motion. Interfaces and identities designed to move, animated to run at 60 fps.
Brand identity and art direction
Identities, guidelines and campaigns, from licensed collections with Disney and Hering to sports brands in more than ten markets.
Design leadership
I’ve built and led teams of seven and eight designers, with critiques, one-to-ones, reviews and a clear quality bar for every deliverable.
AI in the workflow
AI for research, prototyping and production, steered by a designer’s judgement and checked by a person at every step.
