AZ Coffee

I created a concept video for AZ Coffee that was meant to introduce their service and establish their vibe.

Roles: Motion Graphics/Motion Design

Purpose

  • Introduce AZ Coffee’s personalized subscription model to a broader audience unfamiliar with specialty coffee

  • Create a short-form video tailored for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts

  • Emphasize the campaign slogan: “A new world at your fingertips”

Concept Development

  • Developed a concise, step-by-step narrative showing the quiz process, custom recommendations, and monthly deliveries

  • Focused on evoking excitement around global discovery and new hobbies through coffee

  • Framed the brand as both convenient and adventurous while appealing to “hipsters”

  • Drew inspiration from the Cartoon Network show Chowder for textures and certain transitions.

Visual & Aesthetic Choices

  • Clean, “black-and-white” modern look with a hipster-inspired style

  • Custom animated text and UI elements to enhance clarity and engagement

  • Used curated stock footage and audio to elevate production value despite time constraints

  • Temporary logo created to maintain brand cohesion

Production Decisions

  • Entire video created in under one day due to tight deadline

  • Designed all motion graphics and animations from scratch

  • Used placeholder branding assets where necessary

  • Sourced all visuals and music from royalty-free libraries

Creative Challenges

  • Working without official brand assets, including the logo

  • Creating a fully realized, visually cohesive video within a one-day turnaround

  • Balancing informative content with engaging, fast-paced visuals

  • Making specialty coffee feel accessible and not intimidating to newcomers

Reflection

  • Successfully delivered a polished and engaging explainer video under tight constraints

  • Demonstrated ability to quickly interpret a brief, adapt creatively, and execute at a high level

  • Helped visualize the potential of AZ Coffee’s campaign even in early development stages

Final Result
