Oberoi Hotels & Resorts is synonymous the world over with providing the right blend of service, luxury and quiet efficiency. They have received innumerable awards and accolades and they chose us to represent all this in mere 30 seconds promotional video for this luxury brand of hotels.
The challenge for us was to portray this legacy in the best possible way, in the best possible form and in the best possible ‘light’ [that was quite literally done by our DOP Jason West. Quite a brand in his own right Jason has worked on blockbuster Bollywood films like Don, Rock On and many commercials. It was more of a technically complex shoot, so putting together the right team was of the utmost importance. During filming we worked on and overcame all the challenges of shooting the extreme close-up shots as required in the TVC. We made the best use of the highly sensitive ‘Probe lens’ [very rarely used in India] and did many takes, until the entire creative-team was satisfied that we had the right shot . Also worth mentioning is the The Oberoi Group's highly motivated and well trained staff who provided us with exceptionally attentive and personalised service during the entire shoot.
