Arsenal Away Kit

“In celebration of Arsenal FC’s latest away kit launch, Blinkink and Arsenal Creative Studio have teamed up to deliver a surrealist live-action film directed by Léa Esmaili. The striking short blends cinematography with humor and spotlights the football club’s stars in a larger-than-life way.” - The Drum.

Working with Lea as a storyboard artist is a great mix of strong direction with room for creative input. Lea clearly has a very strong idea of total progression for the whole film, which makes achieving that a simple process via communication. I think the canniness of the final image versus the boards shows that everything is well established before shooting.
