Artistic video of the creative process of architect/industrial designer Enrico Marone Cinzano.

 

Challenge: Creating original, innovative videos for an artist with very strict branding guidelines. 

​

Approach: The artist provided the source material, which was raw footage shot from a static camera. The brief called for a film that was "sexy, edgy, but also honored the design of the artwork." A mirror/kaleidoscope effect was used to make the raw footage edgy and mysterious. The modern cumbia-inspired score helped create a sexy mood, which led up to the unveiling of the finished piece.

 

Outcome: The film was screened at the artist's solo show at The Pearl Lam Gallery in Hong Kong.

 

Role: Director/Editor
