    The Show Must Go On - Boticelli and his Time

    2023

    In 2021 the world was a mess, and so was FIF's documentary project on the "Boticelli and his Time - Masterworks from the Uffizi" at the Hong Kong Museum of Art.
    Social unrest, global Covid-19 pandemic, and administrative red tape had derailed their earlier plans to focus on the exhibition itself.
    So we patiently picked up the pieces and created a new solid narrative for a 60 minute+ documentary that would give a full picture to the project, and give a voice to the different partners and artists involved, including world renown cineast Andrew Lau, pianist Niu Niu, Myriam Yeung, Eason Chan, Renée Fleming, Xuefei Yang, Leon Ko to name only a few.
    The quality of the full documentary led it to be broadcast on several Asia cable channels and on Cathay Pacific's in-flight entertainment in Chinese and English.

    2022

    Due to Covid-19, HKAPA's SWEAT Dance Festival had been cancelled twice in a row.
    For 2022 drastic travelling restrictions to HK were still in place, so they decided to give worldwide dance students a life back by re-inventing themselves as a mixed on/off line event.
    Needless to say, they were pretty busy to get it off the ground, so it's only very last minute that we were contacted to create this promo teaser.
    Created in less than 2 weeks, with virtually no guidance, we exceeded their expectation and got the written and visual content flowing on a tailored soundtrack.

    The promo teaser racked 120K views in just 2 weeks, and the event was fully booked a few days before start, to become one the their best-off ever.

    From time to time our videographers undergo an event coverage endurance challenge and MIPIM Asia is a workout we look forward to every year.

    Besides capturing the usual networking and key note speakers, we also joined the after party celebrations at the Grand Hyatt.

    Although the brief has hardly changed over the years the key to covering these events is to be spacially aware, especially when so many activities over so many days blur into one.

    We used the workers' daily Qigong practice as a storyline, and created a double exposure aesthetic to show them as an essential part of the construction process.

    2016

    Our clients and friends from La Rose Noire were celebrating their 25th anniversary, and we had the priviledge to write their stage's script. Here is the first excerpt:

    "If the whole story of the universe, since its creation to today, was measured as 1 year,
    our solar system would only appear on the last quarter,
    birds and flowers would only appear in the last 3 days,
    humans would only appear in the last minute,
    and modern history would only start in the last 5 seconds.

    So 25 years is not much, really.
    One can argue that it is a quarter of a Century; but in the grand cosmic scheme it is virtually nothing, less than a blink of an eye, and it is humbling.

    Yet, the 25 years that we are celebrating today represent an incredible journey,
    filled with wonderful people,
    hard work,
    amazing achievements,
    and I hope you will agree; delicious outcome.. "

    2013

    HK Tramways was bought out in April 2011 by a French JV between RATP (the Parisian MTR) and Véolia Transportation. Most low income people were worried that foreign investment would take advantage and raise fares. The general public was also very worried about the future of their beloved Ding-Ding. So far the new management has been very respectful of the tradition and is doing its best to modernize the fleet whilst remaining the lowest travel fare in Hong Kong.

    With a limited budget and enormous logistical constraints due to the nature of the railways lines, Filmages chose to portray the evolution of the city and its architecture by following the same woman through 4 distinct eras:
    - Pre-WWII (1904-1945) with elegant Cheongsam or Qipao
    - The 50s and 60s, with the emergence of a growing female working force

    As the Year of the Snake snuck up on us, Landmark celebrated the arrival of the Lunar New Year by putting up a series of stunning, giant paper lanterns; decorations that heralded the vitality and vibrance of Spring.

    These awe-inspiring sculptures measured up to 9 meters in height and spun non-stop, welcoming health and prosperity.

    Additionally, shoppers were soothed by the smells of Spring as floating vases carried colourful, fresh flowers.

    In 2010, Reed Midem really wanted to generate an optimistic buzz for the MIPIM Asia awards. After the 2009 global downturn, the key takeaway was Asia Pacific’s rapid, effective and sustainable recovery.

    In our 3rd consecutive collaboration, using the now highly recognisable MIPIM Asia format, Filmages created a powerful and upbeat promotional video. Focusing on the fact that, even in the darkest hours of the melt down, Asia not only started her recovery earlier than anywhere else but also that she weathered the financial storm with stellar business acumen. 

    The MIPIM 2010 video sought to promote that, even though 2009 was a tough year, the exhibition was a resounding success and was definitely not to be missed this year.

    After commissioning a video presentation for their upcoming seminar, Sonepar gave Filmages some existing material with which to start building a video. But there was not enough to truly represent their global reach as it only focussed on their business in Europe.

    Considering that they are represented in 17 Asian countries, this presented a very unbalanced picture.  So, with very little time and material available, Filmages decided to redress what we had to create a video that fully exposed the Asian arm of Sonepar.

    By adding snapshots of the people who make up the Sonepar Asia operations teams, Filmages produced a video which lifted up the Asia Pacific image on the global management stage.

    For it’s 10th annual event, the HKJFF wanted to make a branded video to raise awareness of the event, using the HKJFF logo as the storyboard foundation.

    The HKJFF logo contains three perspectives in it’s design:

    1. The Star of David - Historic symbol of the Jewish faith and culture.
    2. Audience eyes - Well, it is a film festival.
    3. A circle of people holding hands - Bringing the community together for culture, entertainment, and new friends.

    From Howard’s storyboard, Filmages developed and choreographed a cast of unique characters, composited, edited, and synched the edit to Carol’s great music.

    Design art in Hong Kong just got a feel for quirky Parisian-style with the “Antoine+Manuel Graphic Village” presentation at the Shatin Heritage Museum. 

    Prolific Parisian graphic artists Antoine Audiau and Manuel Warosz had their first ever exhibition in Hong Kong. It reminded us of the “It’s a Small World” ride at Disneyland, only edgier and critter-free!

    "Through our works, people can leave all their worries and concerns of the outside world behind for a moment, and enter a fun-filled and joyful world [sic], feeling like a child,” said Warosz.

    Our challenge was to shoot and edit this video to best represent the experience of their exuberant, oddball style under the spotlight with larger-than-life exhibits "typographic room" and all-white 3D geometric constructions.
