This project features an advertisement for Cycle Pure Agarbatti, executed by CSM, which managed the entire creative process from start to finish. CSM conceptualized the idea, developed the storyboard, and designed detailed miniature sets to bring the vision to life. From lighting design and direction to the shoot and final editing, every stage was handled in-house, ensuring a seamless blend of creativity, precision, and impactful visual storytelling. The campaign was crafted using the stop-motion technique, showcasing a beautifully handcrafted Jhula made by traditional artisans of Channapatna, using the finest white teak sourced from the agro-forests of the Western Ghats. Finished with an eco-friendly coating, the Jhula is easy to assemble and dismantle without any tools. It was a wonderful experience working with the Cycle Pure Agarbatti team, and we sincerely thank them for this incredible opportunity.
