GRIGORII ZHGILIOV, DIRECTOR:
To get into the philosophy of the brand, we studied the life of the famous navigator Jacques-Yves Cousteau. It was important to visually dive to the bottom of the ocean, so we watched a feature film about his yellow submarine and various newsreels. Inspired by this, we proposed to build the animation as a small underwater journey, in which we would eventually sail to the treasure chest and the restaurant's logo.
The animation of each animal or scene is looped, repeating itself an infinite number of times. This allows us to flexibly adjust the duration and composition of scenes in the video, assembling it as a constructor for different tasks.
