03 / SELECTED PUBLIX CASE STUDIES

Behind the idea.

One brand. Three different creative challenges. A closer look at the thinking, collaboration, and craft behind the finished work.

PUBLIX / 01 / VISUAL STORYTELLING

Plant-based.
Without spelling it out.

A simple visual metaphor connects balanced nutrition with the goodness of plants.

The challenge

How do you communicate plant-based food without relying on a literal explanation? The idea needed to feel appetizing first, while giving the audience a visual clue to what made the products different.

The creative solution

The concept paired two ideas in a single composition: food stacked in a balanced, strong arrangement, and a shadow that revealed the silhouette of a plant. The stack expressed balance; the shadow pointed to the food’s plant-based roots. Together, they gave the product story a visual language instead of another line of copy.

Contributions

Chris helped develop the story and translated it into storyboards and an animatic before supporting the live-action shoot as assistant creative director. He then carried the piece through VFX, editing, final compositing, and delivery.

PUBLIX / 02 / CHARACTER & 3D MOTION

A little cart.
A big idea about savings.

An everyday shopping cart becomes a playful way to make savings tangible.

The challenge

Savings can be an abstract promise. The creative challenge was to give that promise a friendly visual form that felt immediately connected to shopping at Publix.

The creative solution

Working with the art director, Chris helped develop a cute Publix shopping cart with savings inside. The familiar cart became the center of the story, with 3D animation bringing personality and movement to a straightforward idea: savings belong in your shop.

Contributions

Chris partnered on story development and planned the sequence through storyboards and an animatic. He handled 3D animation, VFX, editing, final compositing, and delivery, connecting the art direction to the finished moving image.

PUBLIX / 03 / LIVE ACTION & EDITORIAL

From packaging
to delicious.

A quick, story-driven montage turns a packaged product into an appetizing possibility.

The challenge

A package tells you what a product is. The creative needed to go further: move quickly from the product on the shelf to food the audience could imagine enjoying.

The creative solution

The concept used a short montage to connect packaging with the finished food experience. Each beat had a job in the story, building a clear progression rather than a collection of disconnected beauty shots. Storyboards and an animatic established the sequence before the shoot, giving the live-action imagery and final edit a shared direction.

Contributions

Chris helped develop the story, created storyboards and an animatic, and supported the shoot as assistant creative director. In post-production, he shaped the sequence through VFX, editing, and final compositing, carrying it through final delivery.
