French filmmaker Pierre Michel has been able to achieve a rare thing in the commercial arena: the freedom to create whatever he wants without the client even seeing it until it is finished. He did it on the opening for a French film festival last year (Read about it here) and he’s been able to do it again on the sensuous commercial for the world-renowned jewelry store Loris Paris. Seeing his striking visuals and enigmatic style it is easy to see why clients are willing to give him carte blanche. Watch the video below an then read the Q&A with Pierre Michel below about how he created this commercial.
Awesome work!!! What camera did you use for the 2K stuff? And how did you create the awesome particles in Trapcode?

Excellent piece. You mentioned you shot with the HVX200, but that camera is 8-bit 1080i/720p. How did you achieve 2K? Did you upconvert or shoot with a different camera?
