For this New Years campaign I directed for Samsung, they wanted to celebrate Gen Z, their personal style and self expression. Playing with strong silhouettes, snappy animation and goofy dads - each window of this virtual apartment block offers a peek into the characters’ lives and rituals as they get ready to party til dawn.
