Overview

The project reimagines product advertising in a world where humans run on alien soil. The goal was to create a complete campaign concept; from product visualization and moodboarding to cinematic storytelling and digital rollout.

Creative Process

The graphic identity revolved around:

  • Rugged metallic textures
  • Sci-fi typography
  • Emissive orange glow palette
  • Function-driven forms

Using iterative AI prompting, I generated cinematic compositions that visualized the narrative arc.

Each frame explored the relationship between material, movement, and light under Mars’ red haze.
