Van Cleef & Arpels

ALHAMBRA BREEZE

In this Christmas campaign, forest animals meet in the setting sun, celebrating the magic of winter with Van Cleef & Arpels jewelry.

Animated ad campaign

In this sixth campaign for Van Cleef & Arpels, the directing duo Burcu & Geoffrey take us on a journey at sunset to discover the iconic jewelry pieces in the Alhambra collection. In this new collaboration with the Mazarine agency, we follow the path of a butterfly whose four-leaf clover shape playfully and elegantly echoes the codes of a range designed and crafted to bring good luck. During this winter stroll, we encounter other charming animals braving the chill of the winter evening to discover the sparkling creations of the legendary jeweler.

Event Installation - Singapore Ion Orchard

When night falls, the films leave the screen and enter the city. In front of Singapore's legendary luxury shopping mall, ION Orchard, the stories imagined by Burcu & Geoffrey for Van Cleef & Arpels are transformed into light, color, and matter. Animation becomes architecture. Images become a gathering place. Christmas, told on a city-wide scale.

Behind the scenes

Van Cleef & Arpels Burcu & Geoffrey Troublemakers
Before beginning production on the 3D film, our duo of artists undergoes a lengthy phase of illustrated research to establish the tone, colors, and composition of each shot. At the same time, the hand-drawn 2D storyboard allows them to visualize in advance the framing and sequence of the film's various shots.

The creative duo

Directors

Both graduates of Supinfocom, Burcu & Geoffrey began working together during their studies. This talented young duo consists of Burcu, who is passionate about illustration and design, and Geoffrey, a 3D specialist. Together, these two enthusiastic filmmakers create 3D animations that combine rich details and colorful worlds with a 2D, graphic look. Their very first short film, Tant de forêts, produced as part of the famous “En sortant de l’école” collection was broadcast on France 3, and won the prestigious Cristal award at Annecy. Since then, their career has alternated between personal projects and commissioned work, culminating in six superb campaigns for the famous jeweler Van Cleef & Arpels. Alongside his career as a co-director, Geoffrey teaches at the Creative Seeds school in Rennes.

Producer

Jean graduated in screenwriting from Paris-Nanterre University. He began his career as a literary assistant at KABO Family before becoming a script reader and film education specialist. As an animation screenwriter, he has written for various youth series broadcast around the world (Boy Girl Dog Cat Mouse Cheese, Nate Is Late…). At the same time, he joined the TROUBLEMAKERS team, where he was appointed producer in 2025. That same year, he was a member of the jury for the Young Director Awards.
