01 / Overview

Wolford / Mona Lisa

For Wolford’s New Season campaign, Mona Lisa became an animated digital character. Mimic Productions worked with Wolford and DDB to translate the familiar face into a contemporary fashion performance.

The work connected character creation with motion capture, face replacement and animation. Rendering, shading and compositing helped bring the character into the campaign’s final visual setting.

A familiar face, a new performance

The character needed to retain the features that make Mona Lisa recognisable while supporting movement beyond the original painting. Digital character work provided the foundation for that translation.

Connecting capture and animation

Motion capture supplied performance information for the digital character. Animation and face replacement connected that movement with the recreated likeness.

Finishing for fashion

Rendering, shading and compositing formed part of Mimic’s contribution, bringing the character and the campaign imagery together.
