Liquid Motion and Cinemagraphs
Pour builds, splash, and cinemagraph loops for brand campaigns
Liquid Motion, Built for Brands.
Pour builds, splash captures, and cinemagraphs, from Ketel One martini loops to Chandon pours and Lumen beer, that pair with the still campaign rather than replacing it. Motion is captured on the same production day with the same lighting rig so the brand gets a fully integrated asset package from one build.
Specialties
-
Pour Builds and Splash Captures
- High-speed pour captures that freeze the liquid at the moment of maximum visual impact. Mid-pour, impact splash, or controlled drip, the timing and pour rate are managed on set to repeat the frame. Stills and motion captured from the same sequence so the campaign has both asset types at matching quality.
-
Cinemagraphs and Seamless Loops
- Cinemagraphs built from a single still frame with one element animated. A rising bubble column, a slow pour, a drifting garnish. Delivered as seamlessly looping MP4, WebM, and animated GIF files for web and social. The still and animated versions are matched so either can be used as the hero frame.
-
Macro and High-Speed Liquid Frames
- Close-range capture of liquid detail at macro scale. Surface texture, condensation bead, carbonation, and drop impact recorded with precision lighting and fast shutter speeds. Used as supporting frames in campaigns and editorial, and as standalone social content.
-
Social-Ready Vertical Loops
- Looping motion assets built to social format specs. 9:16, 4:5, and 1:1 captured alongside horizontal hero frames from the same production build so the campaign ships complete. Format planning is built into the shot list before the day starts, not handled as a crop in post.
