Bowmore x Frank Quitely - Lovers Transformed
A series of films to launch a limited edition collection of Bowmore single malt, created in collaboration with the legendary graphic artist, Frank Quitely. Inspired by the underwater Celtic myth of the Lovers Transformed, this film was created across a variety of locations, including the cold Scottish seas and in tanks in a studio setting.
I was delighted to have directed and edited this series of films which launched across social media and Global Travel Retail outlets. The creative concept, brand strategy, creative and art direction was by the Edinburgh-based agency, S+Co and we worked alongside a talented crew above and below water to pull off this submerged aesthetic that celebrates the craft of whisky making, storytelling and Frank’s artistry.
