ABOUT: Crafted through a 10-week mentorship program in partnership with Harbor Picture Company and SCAD, this Guerlain commercial represents the collective efforts of a dedicated team of four.
CONCEPT: The primary objective was to craft a sophisticated commercial showcasing Guerlain's Cuir Béluga perfume, precisely aligning with the brand and product's essence. The selection of effects and lighting was meticulously tailored to mirror the perfume's tonal and aesthetic attributes
