Music, poetry, and narration by yours truly
Dive In
With this film, Arctic Fox as a brand wished to cement its philosophy of 'diving into your dreams' among its audience. The film brings the brand's mascot to life and highlights the brand's core beliefs through storytelling.
I created a score that captured the cold of the Arctic, and took viewers on a journey by using music to enable them to truly experience the protagonist's emotions.

With this melody, I tried to capture a sense of innocence with a touch of melancholy as well as the brand's key emotion, nostalgia. I chose a piano-led melody with minimal accompaniment to create a simplistic melody that complemented the universe of the film
