Overview

Why is this work relevant for Music Entertainment?

Taking the universal game Musical Chairs and elevating it with ultra-sophisticated craft, and an original soundtrack created in collaboration with cutting edge music producer Jamie XX.

With a surprise role by KPop star Jennie from Black Pink who plays the mastermind behind this game of life, she helped draw worldwide attention and sensuality to content that created a unforgettable way to feature jewellery: just like a fashion show.

Minimal black lines and a clean-cut execution: the Chanel codes were evident while revinventing the codes of musical chairs.
