MCD · Mood Color Dream

MCD (Mood Color Dream) is a nail polish brand known for its yellow bottle and pink heart label. In October 2025 I brought the product into the language of an ad film without a shoot: a 40-second film and a product reel built in a studio style.

Goal

The brand only had plain product photos. My aim was to position the polish as a mood rather than just a colour, make the “mood” and “dream” in its name visible, and speak to a young audience that isn't afraid of colour. The bottle's shape, colour and label had to stay exactly the same in every scene.

Building a world

For the concept I built a pastel Riviera world of sunset pink, striped beach umbrellas and flamingos: symmetrical, cinematic framing on one side, the nostalgia of old summer ads on the other. I generated the scenes with Nano Banana and placed the bottle in every frame in Photoshop, matching colour and light by hand. A flamingo holding the bottle in its beak became the film's signature image.

The ad film

I turned the thirteen scenes into video with Veo, prepared the voiceover and music with AI, and cut the film in Premiere to a 40-second rhythm. The structure is simple: calm, colour, play and product. It closes on the flamingo holding the bottle.

The product reel

Before the film I made a 24-second reel that tells the same product in a studio language: a gold podium on deep blue, the bottle in a hand, polish being applied and liquid yellow paint. Together the two tones give the brand a visual set for both product-led and campaign-led posts.
