Nutrafol: Youtube & OTT Hair Wellness Campaign

In an ever-evolving realm of hair wellness, our collaboration with Nutrafol wasn’t merely about painting a narrative. It was a strategic endeavor designed to amplify brand awareness and, more crucially, propel sales. We harmoniously combined advanced cinematography with evocative narratives, producing a series of films that resonate with the essence of holistic hair health. At the campaign’s core lay dual objectives: augmenting brand visibility and driving sales. While initially conceptualized for YouTube, the films’ unprecedented success warranted their evolution into OTT versions, which have also been resonating powerfully with audiences. Nutrafol Hair Wellness Campaign: A Fusion of Storytelling and Cinematic Mastery The magic truly unfolded behind the scenes. With the Nutrafol team present at our studios, every idea, every frame, and every soundbite was a collaboration. From conceptualization in our cyclorama studios to recording distinct voice-overs and CTAs in our specialized vocal booth, every step was a dance of innovation and cohesion. Interestingly, while the same talents lent their voices in both scenarios, the nuanced audio quality difference between the narrative and CTAs added a layer of sophistication. What sets these films apart in the crowded landscape of wellness advertising? Our inspiration was drawn from fashion films, and it reflects in […]

LA Galaxy: Rose Bowl Campaign

2023 was the start of our creative journey with Major League Soccer superstars, LA Galaxy. Our original creation was an opening trailer for the season which highlighted the rivalry between LA Galaxy and LAFC while also letting the fans know that this game would be happening where it all began for LA Galaxy – at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA. Due to extreme weather conditions, the game was called off at the last moment and was rescheduled for independence day. To amplify the rivalry once more, we were tasked with creating a variety of campaign assets for the rescheduled Rose Bowl Stadium game and continue where we left off earlier in the season. For this campaign we created three different films: Rose Bowl Ticket Push Trailer: The first of our trailers, the intent of this film was to build up hype before the big game while also serving as a final ticket sales push to help sell out the Rose Bowl game. Our film successfully helped make that happen! Match Day -1 Hype Film: A reminder that tomorrow was the day that something historic was going to happen. In Stadium / Broadcast Hype Film: This film was played in […]

Tiffany: The Voice of Schlumberger

In the opulent world of jewelry, few names resonate as profoundly as Jean Schlumberger. The French designer, celebrated for transforming Tiffany & Co.’s jewelry line with his imaginative and vibrant pieces, left an indelible mark on the industry. Yet, amid all his illustrious creations, one mystery lingered – the absence of an audible memory. Almost no one truly knows what the legendary Schlumberger sounded like, a private man he never publicly gave an interview and there are no known recordings of his voice. The Voice Behind the Legend: Recreating Jean Schlumberger’s Essence at Tiffany & Co. In collaboration with the Tiffany archives, we embarked on a captivating journey to unearth and recreate the Voice of Schlumberger for an exclusive installation at their newly renovated flagship Fifth Avenue store. The challenge was immense; the mission was to simulate a voice without a reference point. Our extensive research took us through Schlumberger's background, his upbringing, and any existing literature that might hint at his vocal tonality. Despite the hurdles, the intricacies of this endeavor were also what made it exhilarating. Breathing Life into a Silent Legacy A notable highlight of our creation process involved crafting a soundscape spanning three distinct zones, emanating […]
