Creating the atmosphere

Creative Director, Fabrice Le Nezet, says, “I have always been fascinated with BYBORRE textile and the technology behind it. As I was looking at the latest textiles collection, I lost myself in the intricate details of the design and started imagining how it would look if I could place my camera right on the surface. From there I developed a dreamlike journey playing with time and scale to create a fictional distorted space, a space where everything is possible."

"In this project, the lighting was part of the story. I wanted the scenes to feel epic and cinematic, referencing some classic sci-fi movies, but also to have a staged and fabricated feel. We designed the space as if it were built in a large theatre, with all the light sources being part of the set. The idea was to create a moody atmosphere, evoking a sense of nostalgia. It was as much about revealing the set as it was about hiding parts of it—the parts that remain in the shadow.

Single-camera move sequences are always a technical challenge. It’s a bit of a puzzle to decide how best to organise the scene so multiple artists can work on different aspects simultaneously."
