Training seminar films
This is a series of 5 short video pieces, commissioned to help enliven and prompt feedback in training seminars. Each one illustrates classic mistakes made in branding and marketing, via two characters and a hypothetical, abstract product.
Embracing the minimal budget with a simple 'white room' look actually helps the audience to focus on the story and themes.
It was a huge challenge not only trying to write concise scripts that covered the subjects of the seminar, but with character, comedy, an overarching storyline, yet minimal dialogue. I knew I'd done something right when I nearly ruined the first take of film 4 as I struggled to hold in my laughter.
As usual I also got stuck in with things like prop-making, and attention to the little touches like the Kube 'logo'.
Due to the ongoing use of these films, they are unavailable for general public viewing, but here's a short clip. Please contact me if you'd like to see more.
