BEYOND ROMANCE

Zalando | Co-Art Direction

Co-art directed with Olivia Czaplinski Valentine's Day film built around the five senses as portals. Each sensation - a touch, a scent, the warmth of skin - becomes a threshold into another world. Real couples, intimate and unhurried, dissolve into surreal CGI landscapes: rocky terrain blooming with pink flowers, faces so close they lose their edges, hands that hold something almost invisible.

Director Harun Güler wove the film together with spoken word, his voice a poem underneath the images. The CGI by Looping Lovers translated feeling into place.
