Cheap product. Expensive-looking film. That's the job.
A Casio MTP — the affordable gold dress watch — treated exactly the way I'd treat a piece worth a hundred times more. Slow reveal out of darkness, one continuous take, no cuts to hide behind.
If you sell something you think is "too small" to film properly, this post is for you. Send me a DM.

theatre rehearsals, but cinematic ౨ৎ ⋆｡˚

When working on the Hotplate site, we kept coming back to one idea: it should feel human, organic, not corporate.
The masking tape, polaroid reveal effect, almost as if it's developing in your hand, are a small piece of that. 📸
