FCUK Transform a life

The Brief
Excel fostering came to us with the brief of seeing the transformation of a home office to a welcoming foster child’s bedroom for their Transform a Life campaign. We approached this by thinking ‘wouldn’t it be fun if the room changes over a continuous shot’? And that’s what we went with!
Concept, Production & Delivery
For our concept we had to first test our narrative using a robotic motion control to undertake the transformation of a home office to a welcoming foster child’s bedroom. Using controlled lighting throughout this shoot was key as we had to shoot multiple passes of the same area for the composited shots. Plus, we needed space, so once scripting and storyboards were complete, we built a set. The final film is designed for sound off, so delivers key messaging in practical and embedded motion graphics.
The Outcome
We created a 1 minute main promotional film, with multiple cutdowns for the social media campaign. The project was a technical challenge, but the client was ecstatic with the results!

What Our Customers Say
From the outset, the Main Media team understood our aim to add storytelling to the project experience. The team went over and above for Havens Hospices. They took time to understand the cause and why it matters to our community, which shone through the final films.

The team are brilliant. They are creative and so easy to work with. They find solutions to problems and ill thought out filming areas (Science Museum flashback!). They turn things around really quickly, are very high quality, provide creative input and are really cost competitive. They are also adept at working with people at all levels and making even the most nervous interviewee feel comfortable
