Balfour Beatty - Shape Everything

Working with Employer Brand agency SMRS, we helped to create over fifty highly sculpted pieces of film within one production for Balfour Beatty. The concept – you shape everything around you.

Working within an existing employer brand campaign that covered all platforms meant that we had some very defined design assets to work with. The challenge was to convert what worked well in a stills environment to the moving image. Working with a group of contributors over two days in a studio shoot meant we could co-ordinate the production to generate all the content we needed for an entire raft of films.

The end result from one shoot? 1 high-end animated promo film featuring composites of people’s faces, 19 individual people profile films for the website, 32 social media films based on shorter sharper content, 1 Emerging Talent recruitment film and 1 Experienced Hire recruitment film. All from one production with continuity of post-production and design running throughout.

SMRS and Balfour Beatty won Recruitment Team of the Year at the 2019 The Firm Awards for this campaign.
