VanMoof “Ride the Future” by Ambassadors

If a product film’s purpose is to spark desire in the viewer while revealing the product’s features and benefits, then this project by Amsterdam studio Ambassadors for Dutch bicycle maker VanMoof goes above and beyond.

The film features VanMoof’s Electrified S2 and X2 models with the Ambassadors’ crew handling the full package including design, production, 3D animation, VFX, grade, music, and sound design.

From Ambassadors: “Inspired by the sleek design and incredible innovations of the S2 and X2 we approached the brief like a short film apposed to a classic product film – trying to find unique ways to illustrate the bikes features through visual metaphors, stylish compositions and futuristic sound design.”
