The brief
A 30-second, 16:9 film for VANTA Ember Veil, a perfume I made up: an amber eau de parfum in a heavy glass bottle with a faceted obsidian cap. The film had to feel dark, tactile and expensive, the way a luxury fragrance launch does, without a studio, a set or a product to shoot.
The process
- 01BottleI designed the bottle first as a reference sheet, so every shot shows the same glass, label and cap.
- 02Look framesSix campaign frames in Higgsfield, one per shot: glass macro, ingredients, black silk, amber wave, obsidian hero and the packshot.
- 03GenerationThree ten-second clips made with Seedance 2.5 in Higgsfield and Magnific, each guided by two tagged image references so the bottle stays consistent.
- 04CutThe clips joined with hard cuts at their natural speed, without retiming, into exactly 30 seconds.
- 05ScoreMusic made to the cut: at 96 BPM each five-second shot is two bars, so every cut lands on a downbeat and the hero hit falls on the 20-second cut.
Six shots
The film moves from close to wide: the glass and liquid up close, the ingredients that make the scent, the silk and the amber wave for texture, then the bottle standing alone on obsidian.
The result
A finished 30-second fragrance film with a timed score, made with AI generation and cut by hand. The same process works for any premium product that needs a launch film before there is a shoot budget: you send the product or its design, and I deliver the film.
Launching a product without a shoot budget?
I design the look, generate the shots, cut them by hand and score the film, so you get a finished launch film from a product photo or a design. Send me the product and where it will run.
