Navigating a Neon Jungle
Step into a vibrant neon jungle with this case study, as we explore PHNTM’s innovative approach to CloZee's music video "Winter is Coming." Faced with the creative challenge of bringing a fully animated, visually stunning narrative to life, PHNTM melded artistry and technology to deliver a video that is both a visual spectacle and a true embodiment of CloZee's unique musical style.
Challenge
CloZee sought a music video that could do justice to the rich, intricate layers of her track "Winter is Coming." The song itself was a journey, and the video needed to reflect this complexity. The challenge was to design an animated world that would not only enhance the song but also engage viewers through a dynamic visual experience.
Concept
PHNTM conceptualized a neon jungle for the music video—a vivid, animated world teeming with glowing flora and fauna. This environment served as the backdrop for a journey through the changing seasons, providing a visual metaphor for the evolution of the music itself. Every frame was meticulously designed to reflect the tempo, melody, and rhythm of CloZee’s track.
