Arkikai – Sonic Engineering

The Challenge

Arkikai, a new headphones startup, needed a short film to introduce their brand with a fresh, youthful, and minimalist style. The goal was to present the earbuds not only as audio devices but as design objects, setting the tone for a brand positioned at the intersection of technology and lifestyle.

Creative Approach

I directed and produced a 3D short film supported by high-quality product renders. The concept placed the earbuds within a surreal soundwave environment—an abstract space that awakens as the headset opens. The visuals used a minimal, monochrome palette with subtle purple accents, enhanced by fluid motion and balanced compositions to highlight the product’s elegance.

The result was a set of cinematic visuals that framed Arkikai’s earbuds as both functional and sculptural, giving the brand a distinctive visual identity at launch.
