As the new year gets underway, one segment of our pro community that we’re always eager to watch and showcase is agency teams, and how they’re using Meta Spark to build breakout experiences for brands.

That’s why we’re excited to introduce a new video series today that goes behind the scenes with the AR team at BUCK, a global creative company and Meta Spark partner, and chronicles their recent efforts to concept, build and launch a unique collection of AR experiences for the DIOR Beauty #DreaminDior campaign. It’s also a great study on the creative process for AR experiences from the perspectives of a global AR design team at BUCK, working with a world-class beauty and fashion brand team at DIOR.

In this initial video, you’ll hear from brand leaders at DIOR, who articulate the vision for the project and the inspiration they found working with contemporary artist, Pietro Ruffo, to help shape and guide this initiative’s distinct visual design. Equally important, we’ll bring you up close with the BUCK team, and you’ll learn how they brought a diverse group of designers, animators, 3D modelers, and programmers together to help bring DIOR’s vision to life using a range of advanced capabilities in Meta Spark Studio.
