THE RESPONSE
The key message in this TVC was about defiance and being triumphant in the end, and our music had to reflect that. We incorporated contemporary orchestral instrumentation to build with the lead character on her journey, while using music and sound to really engage the audience along the way. We referenced Swan Lake as inspiration for the emotional climax of this piece.
We also added percussive and bell-like elements to elevate an authentically South African feeling to the music.
We loved collaborating with Fausto Becatti and the team on this epic campaign.
