The Brief
Martini desired a campaign that conveyed an authentic, enjoyable experience among friends and showcased their products attractively. They aimed for a balance between pack shots and lifestyle advertising, emphasizing an atmosphere that resonated with their target audience. Expertise and local knowledge were essential in capturing the campaign’s essence, particularly in utilizing natural lighting.

Gavin Schneider Productions coordinated seamlessly between the Camps Bay house and the Italian-style country estate in Cape Town’s southern suburbs. With careful planning and collaboration, they ensured both locations perfectly represented Martini’s brand and created an immersive experience for the audience.
Photographer Laura Knox, known for her still-life studio work, eagerly embraced the challenge of blending pack shots and lifestyle advertising. Utilizing local knowledge, Knox expertly captured the campaign’s essence by harnessing the ideal natural lighting.
