Vintage Teas Concept | Design | Copy | Photoshoot | Videography Corporate AV To encapsulate the beliefs and processes of Value Added Tea Company, Vintage Teas, we developed an AV to showcase at tea trade fairs and to send to potential clients. The film shows how Vintage Teas craft specialty teas with your perfect end in mind, whenever they develop a new blend. To this end, the film plays backwards, from the moment of tea consumption, right down to the picking of teas at sprawling Ceylon Tea estates. |

Vintage Teas
Concept | Design | Copy | Photoshoot Profile (GIF and PDF) https://vintageteas.lk/morning_after_tea/index.html Value-added tea manufacturer Vintage found itself in a challenging position post-lock down, in a new normal world where travel was out of the question, and tea fairs and trade shows could not be held. This meant that traders could not meet buyers in person and exchange key information. The company needed a brochure for their range of Morning After Teas, specifically for the Russian market , but it also needed to capture the attention of buyers immediately. We proposed a beautifully designed “moving” brochure- a one page web link embedded with GIF images of their specially teas that helped evoke sensory perception. Steam rose from tea cups, while a kettle poured hot tea into a cup, and a master blender mixed a colourful floral concoction. The animated brochure was an instant hit and helped bridge the gap in a world where face to face selling was not an option. |

Lalitha Jewellers
Strategy | Concept | Design | Photoshoot
Lalitha Jewellers has been a household name in fine jewellery in Sri Lanka for decades, yet had not been in the limelight for some years and had therefore no specific image that the brand owned as its own. We proposed a restyling of their advertising and website photography to portray a classic, cultured woman as opposed to a high fashion or mass appeal look. We also re-positioned the brand as a bespoke jeweller, which highlighted their capabilities of a high level of design and artistry in the jewellery market.

Canis Dog Food
Strategy | Social Media
https://www.instagram.com/canisdogfood/
Homegrown dog food brand Canis was on a mission to re-program the feeding behaviour of dog owners in the country. While the company produced and sold human grade, natural dog food through word of mouth and contacts, the brand was speaking too softly to be able to make any noticeable changes in the market. In November 2020, we formerly launched Canis- barkin’ good food, by positioning it as the healthiest choice for pet parents. Our communications did not focus on selling product, rather it spoke to those who loved and cared for their pets as a parent would, and sought to educate them on healthy feeding in general. Our social media pages shared original articles on good pet parenting, on feeding and training, on nutrition and on the harmful effects of feeding commercial pet food to dogs.
The pages received feedback commending the advice and the brand was looked up to, as a trusted adviser on all things dog. 6 months into establishing the brand, a slow roll out of advertising our healthy meals and treats began and was an instant success. The brand continues to regularly offer useful advice on caring for your pet the right way while also producing some barkin’ good food!

Glow Collagen - MEGA Pharma
Social Media creative strategy
Collagen supplement Glow had been in the market for many years, yet did not have the brand recall and voice that it should have. It was also hardly known in the capital city while awareness was higher in the outskirts due to the brands constant presence on TV talk shows. We sought to position the brand differently on its social media channels, attracting a younger, more savvy audience who needed to preserve their youthfulness rather than fix wrinkles or ageing skin. Our premise- be the best version of yourself. We proposed colour palettes and a refreshed photography look, suggested a foodie approach to the insta feed and encouraged customer selfies of all ages to be shared. The products benefits for internal health like stronger joints and better hair and nails were also highlighted in our strategy.
