This fashion documentary-style teaser was developed for Luma Portugal’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection as a fully AI-generated visual experiment. The project blends realism and magic, using documentary aesthetics with subtle elements of magical realism. The cinematographic approach emphasizes minimalism, with naturalistic camera language and sound design grounding the film in reality, while introduces a sense of quiet magic. The result is a hybrid visual world reflecting the tone of the upcoming campaign.
Process & Tool Selection
Following the brief, the development process focused on defining the required level of realism, particularly in facial close-ups and camera-driven detail. Early visual sketches and direction were explored using Nano Banana Pro to establish tone, framing, and character presence. Based on these tests, Kling 3 was selected for video generation due to its strength in handling close-up shots and delivering a higher degree of facial realism. Sound design was fully generated using ElevenLabs, chosen for its precision and control in creating subtle sound effects and minimalistic music aligned with the project’s tone. The final edit and refinements were completed in DaVinci Resolve, allowing for adjustments in pacing, color, and overall visual cohesion.
Evaluation & Outcome
As a recent experimental project, the film has been positively received for its innovative use of AI in fashion storytelling. It functions both as a creative exploration and as an announcement teaser for the larger campaign, successfully establishing a visual direction defined by elegance, minimalism, and a subtle sense of magic.
