How we turned one studio day into a set of series pre-rolls.

01 · The brief

Stop the scroll for a new series

Netflix needed short pre-roll ads to build awareness of the series, each one quick enough to work before a viewer can skip.

03 · The outcome

Four pre-rolls from one shoot

Four pre-roll ads of between 10 and 19 seconds, from atmospheric forest openers to close-up character moments. Shared across online, digital and social channels.

02 · Our approach

Cast on green screen, the forest in post

We filmed the cast in a studio against green screen, then placed them in the series' forest world, and captured behind-the-scenes footage on the day.
