Prima—Vera Campana

From the blank page to the screens of metros and stations: the Prima—Vera Campana commercial for Campania's cultural heritage, written, produced and distributed by a single pipeline.

/ Overview

The project

A campaign that had to convey the scale and beauty of Campania's places, from above and up close — and bring them in front of people, every day.

For Scabec's Prima—Vera Campana campaign, Artide handled the commercial's entire pipeline: concept and writing, pre-production, and shooting across the sites of Campania's cultural and natural heritage.

Shot on RED cinema camera, with aerial drone footage for the monumental scale and close-ups for the detail, curating light, movement and composition site by site.

And after production, the campaign itself: press office and advertising distribution across Campania, on the metro circuit and in the major railway stations.

The challenge

An institutional commercial has a few seconds to convey the scale of a millennia-old heritage: every shot had to stand on its own — the right light, the right movement, the right site.

And it had to work where it would live: on the screens of metros and stations, fast and noisy environments where the image must stop the eye without relying on sound.

Frequently asked questions

Do you produce complete commercials, from writing to air?
Yes, it's how we work: for Prima—Vera Campana the same pipeline handled concept and writing, pre-production, RED shooting and even the campaign's press office and advertising distribution.
What cameras do you shoot commercials on?
It depends on the project: this campaign was shot on RED cinema camera, with aerial drone footage — the image quality an institutional campaign destined for large urban screens demands.
Do you also handle advertising distribution?
Yes. For Scabec we planned the commercial's distribution across Campania, on the metro circuit and in the major railway stations, alongside the campaign's press office.
Do you work on institutional campaigns?
Yes, it's an important part of our work: as a certified Cultural and Creative Enterprise (ICC) we collaborate with institutions and public companies — Prima—Vera Campana is a Scabec campaign promoting Campania's heritage.
