Liquid Death has done it again. Known for their metal-inspired branding and hardcore take on canned water, the company has now entered the soda game with Root Beer Wrath—a ruthless twist on a nostalgic favorite. But how do you introduce such a beverage to the world? With a campaign that’s as bold and rebellious as the drink itself.
At xCephasx Studios, we took this challenge head-on, crafting a high-octane, AI-powered spec ad that captures the unrelenting energy of Root Beer Wrath. Using cutting-edge AI tools, we created a fully animated, metal-fueled visual experience that could stand toe-to-toe with Liquid Death’s legendary marketing.
How We Used AI to Bring Root Beer Wrath to Life
We set out to make an ad that not only embodies Liquid Death’s brand but also pushes the boundaries of creativity. Here’s how we did it:
1. AI-Powered Animation with LumaLabs
To craft a visually stunning animated world, we leveraged LumaLabs, an AI tool that transforms static visuals into fluid, high-quality animations. This allowed us to create dynamic, death-metal-infused scenes without the traditional costs and time constraints of manual animation.
2. Death Metal Soundtrack with Suno AI
Root Beer Wrath needed a soundtrack as intense as its name. Using Suno AI, we generated a relentless death metal score, complete with heavy riffs and guttural screams—exactly the kind of energy Liquid Death fans crave.
3. Illustrated Death Style Art with MidJourney
Liquid Death’s branding thrives on dark, hand-illustrated visuals reminiscent of classic metal album covers. We used MidJourney to generate artwork that embodied this signature style, creating menacing root beer demons and apocalyptic soda storms, all in an instantly recognizable aesthetic.
Why AI is the Future of Brand Content
Our spec ad for Root Beer Wrath isn’t just a proof of concept—it’s a glimpse into the future of marketing. AI tools like LumaLabs, Suno, and MidJourney allow brands to create top-tier content faster and cheaper than ever before. Here’s why companies should take notice:
Speed: AI accelerates the creative process, cutting animation and music production time from weeks to days.
Cost-Efficiency: Traditional ad production can cost tens of thousands of dollars. AI slashes expenses without sacrificing quality.
Limitless Creativity: With AI, brands can explore unique, boundary-pushing visuals that would be too complex or costly to achieve manually.
