Espresso Evolved | Product Campaign | 2026

Art Direction, Campaigns, Films, Photography

Fellow’s Espresso Series 1 machine was out in the world. We gave it a beautiful lifestyle film, showing how it could live seamlessly into your life, and elevate your morning moments (see Espresso Launch). But it was time to give the machine its own moment. Highlighting the curves, details and shine, we made a spot that made Series 1 look like a sports car in a garage. Hell yeah.
