Swag— Stuff We All Get.
Swag.com is an online platform where you can customize, shop, store, and ship your company's swag with the click of a button.
The aim for this brand film is to highlight and showcase the main features, services and premium products the website offers. We were not after a tutorial, but rather an overview video that could display how friendly, simple and convenient it is to buy, store and distribute the best Swag around the world.
The video lives on the homepage of the platform and it is very accessible to any who surfs it, whether is a regular customer or not. The overall idea was to optimize and show the products as our heroes, the high quality 'Stuff We All Get': Close-ups displaying realistic textures and wider shots with colorful sets play together to exhibit the variety of products in a sophisticated harmony.
Let's get our goodies!
Intentional lighting and framings are combined with high quality shadings in order to bring volume, realism and make all the swag products displayed look high quality.
The balance between brigther and slightly more dramatic scenes makes products pop up and puts them upfront throughout the video.
A monochromatic look and feel was used for the scenes displaying only one product. Lighter, soft backgrounds with products in darker shades of the same color make the products pop up in a highly sofisticated style.
Neutral backgrounds were introduced for scenes displaying multiple products. Also, a combination of monochrome shades for each of the products were used to bring life and variety of color in a balanced harmony.
