Oil Gusher Morph Ad

I need a short, cinematic spot that opens on a gritty Texas oil field as a pressurised gusher of thick crude shoots up from the ground. The jet should behave exactly like real oil—dense, weighty, viscous—then becomes shiny liquid mercury and twist and fold until it shapes itself into a full-size man figure. As the silver mercury liquid falls to the ground it forms in to a white man in a black jeans and white shirt as it hits the ground. , the viewer is left staring at. Handsome man

This is not a stylised cartoon; every droplet, splash and particle must feel physically correct. I’m picturing something that could live between a high-end beer commercial and a moody film trailer: dramatic lighting, tactile textures, subtle camera shake, and a colour grade that keeps everything grounded and believable. The final runtime will sit around 10–15 seconds and serve as the centrepiece of an upcoming advertisement, so photoreal quality is essential—think SideFX Houdini or Blender fluid simulations, detailed mesh caching, and meticulous compositing in Nuke or After Effects.

Deliverables (all rights transferred upon delivery):
• 4K master video (ProRes or high-bitrate MP4)
• Clean background render plus an alpha/transparent version for future edits
• Project and simulation files so we can rebrand or adjust timing later

Please outline your workflow, the software you’ll use, and how many review passes are included. If you have previous work featuring realistic liquid or creature formation, send links; that will weigh heavily in my decision.
