The Work
Shine took a cinematic approach to product storytelling. The creative direction focused on light, texture, and motion - revealing the beauty of the crystals through macro detail and elegant slow-motion shots. Each film followed the transformation of the crystals into rich, aromatic coffee, framed by plissé glass textures and soft, reflective lighting. The campaign spanned social, digital, and in-store touchpoints, with recipe films for hot and iced serves that made the ritual of instant coffee feel indulgent again.
