Carmelo's Restaurant

Challenge

To design a motion sizzle for Carmelo’s, a new Italian American restaurant in Covington, Kentucky. The goal was to showcase the brand’s identity, personality, and strategic messaging while capturing its warm and authentic Italian American spirit.

Solution

Working from a brand identity designed by the BLDG team, I developed the motion design for the sizzle, bringing Carmelo's story to life with spirited motion graphics, mouth-watering imagery of their signature dishes, and a playful, personified animation of Carmelo. Paired with sound design inspired by the restaurant's atmosphere and Italian music, the sizzle captures the restaurant's warm, authentic spirit.
