Luxury Kinetic Typography Video
Client: CHANEL

Year: 2024

Chanel contacted us to produce a visually rich and emotionally resonant kinetic typography and mixed-media video for the iconic Chance perfume.

CHANEL - Kinetic Typography Video

Bringing the Spirit of Chanel Chance to Life through Kinetic Typography

For this piece, we embraced kinetic typography as the primary storytelling vehicle, seamlessly weaving animated words with visual elements like the Chanel Chance bottle, real photographs, hand-drawn illustrations, and abstract cutouts. The typography doesn't just support the visuals—it dances with them, creating a layered dialogue between text and image.

This approach creates a unique visual language where animated letterforms reflect the fragrance's joyful spontaneity and elegance. Every frame is carefully composed so that typography and brand assets—particularly the iconic circular perfume bottle—move in perfect harmony, evoking the lightness, fluidity, and transformation that Chanel Chance represents.

A Dance of Typography, Imagery, and Movement

In this kinetic typography video, we transformed words into a living, breathing element of the composition where each letter moves in sync with brand assets and mixed media elements. The circular motif of the perfume bottle inspired much of the typographic animation—swirling letterforms, petal-like text reveals, and dreamlike typographic transitions convey the sense of perpetual movement and the excitement of seizing the perfect moment. Typography becomes texture, motion, and meaning all at once.

The Art of Kinetic Typography with Mixed Media

The magic of our approach lies in how kinetic typography interacts with diverse visual elements into a cohesive and expressive whole. This technique allowed us to weave animated text with the Chanel Chance bottle, real-life imagery, and stylized graphics, adding depth and dimension that mirror the complexity and allure of the fragrance itself. The tactile, handcrafted aesthetic of cutouts and illustrations is juxtaposed with sleek typographic motion, offering viewers a multi-sensory experience that is both playful and sophisticated.

Chanel's Timeless Story Reimagined Through Type

At its heart, this video is a story of chance, spontaneity, and transformation—values that lie at the core of Chanel's iconic fragrance. Through kinetic typography paired with surreal imagery, soft color palettes, and expressive movement, we invite viewers to step into a world where words and brand assets unite to tell a story. Our goal was not just to promote a product but to craft an artistic narrative where typography elevates every visual element, resonating emotionally with audiences.

The Power of Kinetic Typography in Motion

By infusing typography with motion and integrating it seamlessly with brand assets like product bottles and mixed media elements, we were able to create a dynamic experience that captures attention and ignites imagination. Kinetic typography allows for limitless creative expression, offering the flexibility to make words perform alongside every visual detail in service of the story. This video exemplifies how thoughtful type animation can amplify a brand's voice, making it memorable and impactful while celebrating the product itself.

You can also explore other examples of kinetic typography videos we’ve produced, including one for a major Netflix event in New York, a powerful fintech text animation for R15K AI, a sports piece called Run4Life (an energetic mix of dynamic kinetic type and live-action running scenes), a luxury video for Chanel Chance, and an text driven intro for the Twilio Signal convention.
