Platform architecture

Trash was a mobile application for iOS that harnessed the power of artificial intelligence to help its users create video edits from their camera rolls content with just a couple of screen taps.

I am a super fan of RST and their AdminJS. I had a wonderful experience of working with them on developing an MVP prototype of my social music platform. When TRASH for Artists was launched, it helped my company to get acquired by VSCO. I then continued to work with the RST team on a VSCO-led project.
