# HYDRA

A skincare brand I invented to answer one question: can a serum launch look like it had a studio, a set builder and a week of shoot days, when it had none of those? I wrote the brief the way a brand would, designed the bottle, then built the world around it and art-directed every frame by hand. The set is water, glass and morning light.

None of it exists. Every frame was made to feel like it does.
