How it was made

Challenge

The brand needed an ad about emotional distance in relationships that would feel warm and relatable, not preachy, and stand out in a feed full of live-action ads.

Research

Built the story around a moment almost every couple recognizes: sitting side by side on the couch, both scrolling their phones, together but not really connected.

Strategy

Told the message as a short three-beat story instead of stating it: disconnection, the moment one partner notices, and reconnection. Viewers see themselves in it before any message is spoken.

Creative Direction

Chose a claymation look for its handmade warmth and charm. Soft evening light, a cozy living room, knit sweaters and small expressive faces carry the emotion, from the wide shot of the couple lost in their phones to the close-up of them holding hands and smiling again.

Execution

Created the key frames with ChatGPT image generation, animated them with Higgsfield and Seedance 2.5, and compiled the final cut in CapCut with light editing to bring out the emotion of each beat.

Lessons Learned

A distinctive visual style earns attention, but the story keeps it. Claymation made people stop scrolling; the familiar couch moment made them stay.
