The film moves through historical black and white imagery to the colour of the present day where Master Blender Colin Scott whose passion re created the legacy of Chivas Regal 25 Year Old for it’s relaunch in 2007.
Film Club Productions have come together with th1ng directors Alon Ziv and Shay Hamias to create the film and manipulated archive Getty images in After Effects to create the 3D style imagery which pulls people into the story of Chivas Regal 25 Year Old. The Chivas Regal 25 Year Old bottle was created using Maya and is therefore CG 3D (computer generated).
