“Hi Team, I just presented our TV 1000 brand campaign to a panel of Agencies…. the films got standing ovations!!” – Simon Mitchell, Creative Director, Viasat Broadcasting UK

We were lucky enough to work closely with Viasat, a global satellite broadcaster, on a number of wonderful projects over 7 years from 2012 to 2019 including some truly epic productions.

We were brought in at the very early stages of each project and collaborated closely by bringing in planners and creatives as required – working as an extension of the Viasat marketing department, often relocating to their offices for ease and greater connection.

Below are some of the great films we made together including some fun “behind the scenes” films which really do show the close relationship we built with the brand and it’s people.

A great example of achieving something really special together is “Final Leap”.

What a challenge – to put 2 guys on a sofa, watching Viasat TV live and throw them out of a plane! The amount of preparation for this was enormous – finding the right specialist sky-diving cameramen, stunt people and ‘dead drop’ location (Arizona) to pull off this “TV first” safely and dynamically.

We worked on many idents and campaigns big and small over the years, a variety of which are shown below including – TV 1000 which was a full channel re-launch in the form of eye catching cinematically epic idents; Viasat Series ‘Endless Entertainment’ an ambitious campaign of unique vignettes that walked (and sometimes ran!) us through Viasat’s TV genres all in one breath-taking film; Viaplay ‘Via Who?’ a channel launch that saw us close part of downtown LA for stunts including an in-camera bungee jump that sent our Tantrum producer back home a nervous wreck!

We are incredibly proud of the many awards we won and the enormous challenges we met and conquered in our time with the lovely folk at Viasat.
