Produced by Hornet, directed by Renaud Lavency, this product film for WhatsApp introduces payment themes in a colorful, character-driven fusion of vignettes.
"This was a very quick turnaround, fun, and high-energy project. By the time I joined, the storyboards had already been created. So, this was mainly about adding depth of emotions and character, and finding an overall fitting style for the film. All in all, a very good first project working with the team at Hornet."
With Renaud's iconic illustrative style on full display, the mood & tone of this film achieves the perfect balance between sophisticated and cheerful. Dealing with a subject matter as dry (or even borderline taboo as money), the scenes from the film do an expert job of extracting the levity and humanity from each vignette. And—through stylized illustration and attention to character—the overall story feels more like a collective journey than a series of disparate narratives.
