Director Carlo Besasie and Producer John Biesack invited us to collaborate on a series of spots for Potawatomi Bingo and Casino.

Female models were shot on a green screen, then enhanced in post to create an ethereal character made of light. Motion designers John Roberts and John Fischer also added particle and light effects to scenes throughout the spot, foreshadowing the reveal of Lady Luck.
