Inspiration

The objective was to make a short video to show part of the experience at Figaro. The inspiration came from a Peter McKinnon short film about brands. Showing details and the slow motion was very important.

Process

This project did not take a lot of time. But in the process we made a little bit more than 150 shots. Plus select the song was very important to link the mood, experience and feelings inside customers.

The track mood is almost everything.
With Figaro, find the appropriate song was the key. A mix between the blues and rock makes possible to create a rude ambient with the scenes. This was my first advertising spot and was used on Social Media, the client was very excited with the final result.
