With the Stanley Cup Final in full swing, here's a look back at our emotional anthem film from the 2022 series. Still one of our most rewarding and favorite projects of all time. Thank you all who were a part of it.
“Be authentic” - the words we kept saying to ourselves when we set out to make an opening Tease unlike any other. Imagine the opportunity to borrow the Stanley Cup for a few days and bring it to a frozen lake town in Northern Minnesota full of devout hockey fans known literally as Hockeytown USA.
The smiles on their faces, the tears in their eyes, that once in a lifetime opportunity. That’s what “Our Time” afforded us the opportunity of doing. A love letter to the grit and sheer determination it takes to get to the Stanley Cup Final. This film featured dozens of real people playing for a vast assortment of leagues. Love of the game runs incredibly deep all across this country, from the people of the frozen tundra of Minnesota to the urbanites in cities like NYC and Philadelphia. Our singular goal was to capture that devotion.
The content captured for this anthem film also supported an entire campaign of short promos that opening each game in the playoffs and the final conference.
