Director’s Cut Zoetrope Wine Stopper
3D-Printed Social Media Sweepstakes Giveaway
For Francis Ford Coppola Winery Director’s Cut wines, the client wanted a unique giveaway to support the launch of a new wine series. Since the Director’s Cut label features sequential animation frames printed side by side, the concept naturally called for a zoetrope-inspired object tied to wine culture.
I designed and 3D printed a functional zoetrope that doubles as a wine stopper, complete with a custom stand so it could also live as a desk toy when not in use. The piece combined practical design with the nostalgic charm of early cinema, turning the wine label’s animation concept into a tactile, collectible object.
