In our latest for Jim Beam and Highdive, we crafted a series of ‘lithographic illustrations to launch the lovely Clermont Steep.’ Dare you to say that five times fast 😜. Bonus points if you can do it after enjoying this delicious American single malt whiskey.
Directed by Ian Bradley at Carbon, we were tasked with bringing the inner world of Clermont Steep’s label to life in unique and unexpected ways. So, we set about developing styleframes and storyboards for five highly detailed cel animated films. Research and preparation never tasted so good!
The design and animation for each spot required bespoke layouts and transitions, mixing our handmade lithographic feel with smooth movements and Clermont Steeps’ freshly minted brand guidelines. We’ll cheers to that!
