Carbon Champagne

Personal production.







Overview 🔎

The idea linked to this realization was to propose a highlighting of the main bottles of Champagne from the Carbon House. Its design was essentially based on two directions: Motion Design and visual effects. A vertical format was adopted and the artistic direction was inspired both by that exhibited through the brand's official website and by the photographs of the bottles of Champagne.







Process 🛣

In order to realize this project, I went through several well-defined stages.

1. Realization of the scenarios (Motion Design, VFX, Editing) in order to clarify the direction of the project and to know all the elements to be produced.
2. Creation and configuration of the composition within After Effects: dimensions of the production (1080x1920 px), choice of the number of frames per second (60 FPS), approximate duration (30 sec.).
3. Cutout of all the elements through After Effects in order to recover only the bottles of Champagne for the constitution of the production.
4. Creation of the different scenes accompanied by Motion design.
5. Design of the visual effects (VFX).
6. Assembly of the production on Premiere Pro: Insertion of the composition, research, addition and editing of the soundtrack.​
7. Production export (H.264): 1 video file (.Mp4); 2 vertical cover pictures (JPG & PNG), 2 horizontal cover pictures (JPG & PNG).
