Arnotts - FANTASMAGORIA

DissEmbargo teamed up with ACNE Dublin to create a bespoke brand film for Arnotts, Irelands oldest and largest department store with a rich history, founded in 1843. The goal was to encapsulate the Arnotts look & feel with playful animation in combination with tactile realistic textural qualities.
