Our Al Mashhad المشهد branding promo campaign has been awarded Bronze at the 2024 The Global Entertainment Marketing Academy of Arts & Sciences

As children, we are all the same. But as we grow, parents, education, and society remind us where we come from, marking us by region and roots.
Yet, DNA reveals that we all share the same origin.
We are neighbours, brothers, and sisters - connected souls, separated only by labels of difference.

Our branding promo for Al Mashhad celebrates these shared origins, reminding the world that despite our diverse paths, we are one global family. This will be my story.

Al Mashhad
The Scene with us will be complete.

Congratulations to all the team members for their passionate effort, and to our client for shining with courage and trust.

A piece of white fabric unfurls like a whispered metaphor, stretching across the vast Inner Mongolian grasslands on its journey toward Paris. It dances along the Great Wall in graceful twirls, swirls with the ocean’s embrace, and ascends mountains in its quest to reach France.

Upon its arrival in Paris, it finds the Seine, where its delicate movements transform into a living canvas for the Olympic Games, casting the silhouettes of athletes in a dance of shadows.

To be part of maestro Zhang Yimou’s team was a privilege beyond words. Together with the visionary minds at Karma and the supportive team from Shootinggallery, a breathtaking Olympic film for Mengniu was born—poetry in motion, soaring high.

The dream team at Velvet Post, paired with the soul-stirring Mongolian melodies of Chris Zhou, breathed life into the Olympic spirit. Now, let this dream take flight.

"Let us dream, let passion run,
in unity, two hearts as one.
In this game of love
We play as one."

Italy and Türkiye have joined forces to host the UEFA EURO 2032 Championship. Both countries show in slow motion the most outstanding way to celebrate the goal, the dribble, the sidekick - a perfect storm for the upcoming fusion of the greatest event ever - without showing any ball, just enjoying the pure art of the football. The entire village turns into an art piece of genuine celebration.

Wild at heart and in short term, velvet and its passionate team created, produced and post-produced the official campaign for the UEFA EURO 2032 Italy & Türkiye candidate film.

The claim "We play as one" swept through the full production and post-production teams.

Our work with animation focuses on bringing the artistry of motion and action to life, transforming the basic into the powerful. Something so simple, originating from a single line is brought to life through a sense of direction and purposeful movement. The restless energy is balanced with a velvety touch to transform the work into pure fun.

The animation is a perfect alternative, but a still creative tool for helping to solve the challenges faced in advertising during these challenging times. Whatever approach, style or technique required to serve your needs best, we will create while always maintaining its essence.

Let the true meaning of spring express itself, a season of beginnings, where life starts a new.

The Hyundai Creta advert is a cinematic triptych, starting with the above-mentioned “Prelaunch” teaser and accompanied by “Premium” and “Performance” commercials. This trio of energetic and captivating advertisements was directed by Matthias Zentner and produced by Picture Perfect, who performed exceptionally under such logistical and time constraints. Discovering and assembling stunning locations in a highly efficient manner. Spanning from the northern salt flats of Kutch to Ahmedabad and onwards to the province of Dharamsala at the foot of the Himalayan mountains.

The Prelaunch movie strips the new Hyundai Creta to its bare essentials, bringing to attention its meticulously designed details. While the “Premium” and “Performance” take a step further in branding the Hyundai Creta as the ultimate SUV.

Using a snorkel lens in macro-perspective, the revolving flow of light and free movement of the camera is truly experienced. A galaxy of concealed angles helps to exhibit the novelty of the vehicle, allowing the featured details to take centre stage. The type animation additionally creates a mysterious teaser, disclosing the new Hyundai model prelaunch booking options.

We are also given an insight into our heroes experiences, allowing us to understand his search through the essential questions. What good is space if you do not feel it? What good is sound if it is not rich? What good is water if it does not flow? What good is an SUV if it is not a Creta?

All of this is portrayed without loss of the beauty surrounding our heroes adventure. Everything from the startling vastness of the starry sky to the sunrise over the salt flats, we accompany him on his journey as he enjoys his driving experience and the new features of the agile Creta. Escaping the familiar in a dynamic and rewarding undertaking.

The shoot happened in early March before the COVID-19 pandemic and consequential global shut-down. So we would like to express our gratitude for every shot, and our humility in having the chance to experienced such spectacular locations.

Dear clients and friends,
A NOTE FROM US

This is challenging times for all of us, as we face the hardship the advertising and creative industry has been placed in, with restricted travel, the globalized and just a few days ago perfectly interconnected world, completely shutting down.
We know and understand that everyone has been affected.

While our teams are taking all necessary precautions, in line with guidance from the World Health Organization, to ensure yours and their safety, velvet remains open for business, entirely remote and online.
Creativity cannot be shut down by any virus and minds are thoughts are free of any borders.

Let’s take time to reflect and re-think about who we are and what we are -
alone and yet together!
