Utrecht | De singel is rond

De singel is rond! Dat kunnen we helaas niet vieren met een groot stadsfeest, maar wél digitaal. Na een spannende pitch koos de gemeente voor ons concept een ode aan de singel met de Utrechtse emmer.

Spoken word artiest Tom Strik dwaalde voor ons twee dagen door de stad en verzamelde de mooiste anekdotes en herinneringen over de singel. Het resultaat: een bijzondere, oprechte video waarin veel verschillende Utrechters samen het laatste stukje van deze Stadsbuitengracht vullen. Natuurlijk gemaakt met een 100% Utrechtse filmcrew.

Het Utrechtse emmertje
In de aanloop naar de officiële opening op 12 september brachten we de emmer al tot leven voor onze stadsgenoten – zonder de afzender te verklappen natuurlijk.

SIRE | Laat Jongens Jongens Zijn

We teamed up with A Bigger Circle to contribute to the SIRE campaign ‘Let boys be boys.’ With this campaign SIRE aims to challenges educators to think about how to raise their boys. Boys and girls are equal, but not the same. Boys who do not have enough space to experiment and learn on their own terms, tend to underperform, feel insecure and have motivational problems.

Rabobank | De oudste filmcrew van Nederland

Rabobank’s newest TVC shows that their older demographic is still going strong. To emphasise this message the guys at Ogilvy Amsterdam came up with the idea to gather a crew of Dutch film veterans to shoot the whole thing. We got in the mix to capture this special moment.

The mini documentary we shot behind the scenes added an extra layer of depth to the entire campaign. With the use of a tag on the audience was engaged to discover the entire story on social.

Natuur & Milieu | Slimwoner

Cavity wall insulation seems like a daunting procedure for many Dutch homeowners. NGO Natuur & Milieu (Nature & Environment) asked us to debunk the most common misconceptions about this fairly simply procedure for their new spring campaign. Resulting in a lovely day of winter camping in the snow.
