Nova Sphere A Website Background Film

A short product film built around aluminium, light, water, flame and flowers. The Nova Sphere brief called for an atmospheric website background ahead of an advertising campaign, with close-up imagery carrying the material character of a modular home object.

A Material-Led Film for Nova Sphere’s Website

Nova Sphere is a modular aluminium object for the home, with interchangeable inserts for candles and flowers. The client was refreshing the product website before an advertising campaign and wanted a more convincing sense of the object’s material and finish than the existing renders provided.

Conveying Nova Sphere’s Finish Through Abstract Close-Ups

The brief left the sequence open. Rather than a fixed storyboard or a step-by-step product demonstration, it called for abstract macro imagery: light on aluminium, water, a candle flame, botanical details and a misty landscape, ending with a brand mark. The visual task was to make those elements feel connected within a few seconds.

The Nova Sphere Film and Its Material Details

Watch the short film, then explore selected stills from the same sequence. These frames show the metal surface, flowers, water, landscape and closing mark; the red flower and floral arrangement appear beside the project brief.

Cover of the guide on pricing a product launch as a photo shoot or as product CGI

Free guide: a 33-asset launch cost $27,670 shot and $11,830 from one model

The images above are one part of what a product needs to go on sale. A full launch runs to thirty-odd assets: packshots for every retailer, lifestyle, texture close-ups, a 360 spin and a short film. We priced 33 of them both ways, $27,670 through a photo shoot and $11,830 as product CGI from one model. The guide gives you the side-by-side, what to build once and the brief to send.

For Nova Sphere, the website brief started with a feeling for the material: a curved metal edge, reflected light and a drop of water. Those close-up details gave the short sequence its direction.

The delivered sequence brings the brief’s material and natural motifs into one short film. The stills on this page are extracted from that film.

What was the Nova Sphere film made for?
The Nova Sphere film was prepared as a background for a product website refresh ahead of an advertising campaign. The client wanted a modern, minimal sequence that conveyed the object’s material and finish. The brief focused on atmosphere and close-up details rather than a narrated explanation of its features.
What kind of product is Nova Sphere?
Nova Sphere is a modular aluminium object for the home, with interchangeable inserts for candles and flowers. Its curved metal form and surface finish informed the film’s direction. Candlelight, flowers and water supplied related visual motifs, connecting the product’s material character with the ways it could be used.
Which visual elements appear in the Nova Sphere film?
The film moves through light on metal, a candle flame, individual flowers, a floral arrangement, water droplets and a misty landscape before the closing brand mark. The selected stills let you examine those moments individually. They come from the finished sequence and are presented here as frames from the film.
How long is the website background film?
The film is approximately twelve seconds long. The initial request described a ten-to-fifteen-second website background, while the production handoff referred to roughly ten seconds. The short format lets the sequence move between material close-ups and natural imagery before ending on a brand mark.
How was the creative direction for Nova Sphere defined?
The brief defined the visual ingredients and intended website use, leaving the sequence open rather than specifying a fixed storyboard. Aluminium texture, water, flame, flowers and a misty landscape were the starting points. The resulting direction uses those motifs to suggest the product’s material character within a short background film.
Are the images on this page separate product renders?
The images are selected frames extracted from the Nova Sphere film. They show the same visual sequence at individual moments, including the metal surface, botanical details and droplets. The film remains the main deliverable; the stills provide a closer look at its compositions, lighting and transitions between materials and natural motifs.
