Louis Vuitton Modern Nostalgia

Modern Nostalgia
____________

"In a world that has been forced to pause, it's easier to reflect on the things that hold true value for us. Women's Artistic Director Nicolas Ghesquière, for example, brings to life the storied symbols of the House of Louis Vuitton. In the shoot for the "Since 1854" collection, fashion influencer Xenia Adonts and Louis Vuitton show how beautiful it is to rediscover the old and create something new from it."

Condenast CNX asked me to art direct and to help them with the development and production of a

mixed media and cgi-project based on a full 3D-recreation of Xenia Adonts face, photos and a simple turntable video.
The challange was to match my 3D assets and realtime FX with footage

shot by Heiko Dreher and Maximilian Thylmann.

Modern Nostalgia

Is a comprehensive concept including a short clip, a micro landing page and fashion photography for print.

A mixture of 3D render, photogrammetry, realtime fx and post production was used to create the project.
It was done in Maxon C4D, Blender, Touchdesigner & Aftere Effects.

Here you can see some different image related distortion examples created in touchdesigner.

There is also a making of video below how the patch was made.

I created a different look for the key-visual, a mix between 3D geometry, artefakts and some oldscool greenscreen vibe.

There is also more making of material below, this was only C4D.

This part is more about the CGI and my fit to the really great photos.
I did the recreation of the face in Blender, which offers a lot of easy features to work with.
