What does wellness look like?
This was the key question we wanted to address when creating one of our recent CTV commercial spots, ARMRA – Soil to Sip. How were we going to capture the idea of health and vitality that radiates from the inside out? It was a fun and rewarding creative exercise, especially because the final commercial spots needed to be turned around quickly to meet the final deadline for the project. But that’s nothing new for us. We know how to buckle down and get it done, even when time is short, without ever compromising our standards for quality.
Production
The director, Clyde Bessey, worked closely with the team at ARMRA to develop the tone of the film, representing the product in the way it was meant to be seen, as it is. With a brand like ARMRA they have nothing to hide, it’s a health and wellness solution that comes from the earth and for the earth, and we wanted to show that on-screen.
Our Director of Photography, Eric Soboleski, wanted to find a look that captured the organic feel of the brand, using a mixture of natural sun and intricate lighting set-ups to create a clean and vibrant overall look for the commercial.
Having our talented editor for the project, Coze Clips, with us in person on set was also a game changer. This allowed us to adapt for client notes on the edit in real time, and allowed us to reach picture lock within a few days after the production wrapped.
Post
The goal from ARMRA was to show how Colostrum improves the strength of our mucosal barrier, protecting us from the harmful chemicals that enter our bodies without us even being aware. This involved us representing a journey through the inside of the body, and seeing what they do to our bodies.
To accomplish our goal of showing that glow that ARMRA gives from the inside out, we developed original graphics and animations. Our in-house team worked overtime to provide multiple rounds of options for the client to review. Using tools like Frame.io and our cloud-based server system for quick review and notes, we were able to bring their vision to life.
