All the real-time football action tracking features of Hublot’s new limited-edition FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 smartwatch get their close-ups in this striking launch film from the Tendril crew.
From the team at Tendril: “We wanted to show the in-game story and 90 minutes of play within our design. Introducing the watch as a metaphor to the pre-match build-up and then using that motion to articulate the in-game play.
“The momentum of goals, yellow cards, and substitution strike the perfect pace. Football design influences and in-game nuances led us toward a unique graphic language, with contrasting tones and sports-inspired lighting.”
