The Challenge : Raising Your Head in a Scroll World.
Auriora Beauty is a cosmetics and skincare brand of the next generation, which specializes in cruelty-free, eco-friendly, and skin-positive skincare and cosmetics aiming at Gen Z audiences.
The problem was obvious: against a background where every second is important, how was it possible to attract attention at a glance, Auriora? The brand required trend-driven, quick-moving social video advertisements that were authentic, modern yet imaged as irresistible to the eye, rather than conventional advertisements.
Auriora’s goals included:
Production of short form advertisements that are best used on Reels, Tik Tok and YouTube Shorts.
● Having a highly energized inclusive brand voice throughout edits.
● Creation of emotional rapport by use of rhythm, color and storytelling.
● Fomenting greater involvement and recognition in the digital-launch of the brand.
Our Style: Editing as an Affective Language.
We had one thing in mind at Swift Animations, we were going to approach the project with the guiding philosophy, which was this: Editing is not cutting clips; it is forming emotion. Each of the frames was to show a confident, positive vibe of Auriora and Gen Z aesthetic.
Phase 1: Imaginative Direction and Visual Ambiance.
Our analysis started with a trending social ad formats audit to find the motion patterns and visual hooks that caused the engagement.
The team of ours designed an idea that would be fashion-film-sophisticated but at the same time be influenced-style and at the same time be relatable to the brand.
● Tone: Quick, cool, and female – and some empowering moments.
● Visual Style: Vibrant, chakic-filled and choreographed to contemporary music.
● Typography: Kinetic playful text that emphasizes the major benefits of the product.
Narrative Flow Problem Application Glow Confidence.
Phase 2: Editing, Transitions or Color Magic.
The implementation process turned uncouth footage into a sequence of scroll-stopping advertisements. Filed with Premiere Pro and CapCut Pro, each composition was made as viral as possible in the short term.
● Dynamic Cuts: Rapidly-paced rhythm cuts with trending tracks.
● Motion Transitions: Smooth transitions between camera zoom, whip-pan and glow wipes.
● Color Grading: Bright and saturated colors that provide each frame a glossy look.
● On-Screen Text: Moving captions to be accessible and trendy.
● Last Minutes: Soft focus filters to make it look like a dream and a high-end beauty product.
Phase 3: Optimization and Delivery of the Platform.
In order to get the most out of the platforms, we made specific versions in every format:
● Reels & TikTok: Vertical 9:16, less than 20-second edits with bold intros.
● YouTube Shorts: A slightly slower rate to adapt to the retention of the audience.
● Create Hashtag: Since it is necessary to use the same frame across all frames, #GlowWithAuriora was used as the hashtag.
The Findings: Glow, Growth and Engagement.
The social-first campaign provided real brand success:
● 3x more engagement rates in all social platforms.
● Substantial increase in the number of followers and content produced by the users.
● The hashtag GlowWithAuriora was trending during the first week of campaign.
Swift Animations understood perfectly how to make our brand pop. Any edit was vibrant, quick, new and completely fashionable.
