Fresh Confidence for the Win.
The @ncaa@mfinalfour came to Indianapolis this past week, and we spent it on the ground with @unileverusa at Fan Fest, capturing several of their brands coming together behind one #FanFreshConfidence moment as an official sponsor of March Madness. The story behind the work and why it mattered, is on the way.

It may be a new year, but the conversations from last month’s Motion Design Collective are still ringing. We're back!

You’re handed a random prompt.
No script, no prep, just 48 hours to turn it into a story worth watching.
Challenge accepted.
We didn’t have time to overthink it. Just instinct, trust, and enough chaos to keep it interesting.
Things went wrong.
People stepped up.
And somehow… it turned out better than we imagined. The @storytactic debut with @48hourfilmproject & @indyfilmfest .
We’re proud of this story and everyone who made it happen; and proud to share the screen with so many incredible filmmakers.

Most productions hide the setup.
For Financial Center’s first commercial shoot, we decided to make it a feature. -
This super-cut pulls from all three campaign spots to show how trust is built “behind the scenes”.
Positioning the brand as a guide and an active participant in their customers’ life goals reflects the level of heart and care that Financial Center brings to their industry.
This approach allowed us to combine both commercial and UGC content, not only in a single campaign, but across all three :30 spots.
Catch them on CTV & Broadcast [running now!]

🎬 UGC vs. Commercial production..
Which builds your brand better?
The rules for content & attention are constantly evolving. So we decided to launch a series were calling “VERSUS” - where we look at the ‘tried and true’ approaches to creative, while comparing with advantages and pitfalls of emerging trends and technology.
For episode 1: @abbyfloyd (UGC Expert) and @ryanimation (Commercial Video Pro) discuss how marketing teams can find the right choice for their brand.
The decision isn’t small… finding the right creative approach to build lasting trust and affinity with your audience could mean the difference between a record campaign and wasted budget. (or worse, your brand’s reputation)
📍 If you want to dig deeper, check out Part 2 on LinkedIn, where they break down when less effort equals authenticity, and when it risks credibility.

We met with Indy’s top creative minds to introduce the future of filmmaking.
These folks are some of the best in the business and they know - if you’re not a disrupter, eventually you will be disrupted. We’re thankful they met with TACTIC at @theboxindy to check out virtual production systems that are sprouting new possibilities in the industry.
Our state is rich with creative talent, and we need more collaboration and this spirit of creative community. We’re thrilled about the future of commercial production in Indiana, alongside every potential partnership. Thanks to everyone who came out!
