Nocco Iceland Director's Cut

These visual effects were crafted for an energy drink commercial aimed at rejuvenating the brand's image. As the lead VFX artist, I developed a series of dynamic transitions and effects to highlight the product's energetic appeal. Although these particular pieces were celebrated by the director and initially approved by the local brand management, they did not appear in the final campaign due to a strategic shift towards a different aesthetic.
