The site’s opening, recorded live

02 The project

A bar and bottle shop in Pontchâteau: beers and wines to enjoy on site or take away. The opening starts inside the fridge; a bottle lifts out of the shot, the cold light gives way to a cream beer poster, and the poster hands the scene over to the real bar.

03 The direction

Composition
A poster language: condensed type, cream paper, engraved hops and torn edges.
Typography
Bebas Neue for titles, with a letterpress grain, and Inter for text.
Colour
Paper, malt and burgundy, with a cold blue only in the fridge opening.
Central gesture
The bottle leaves the fridge and becomes a poster.

05 The motion

  1. 01 Fridge
  2. 02 Bottle
  3. 03 Poster

The point of view starts inside the fridge; the bottle swings up towards the camera while the fridge dissolves into paper; the glass rises in the foreground and the beer arc pours along its diagonal.
