With 74% of people more likely to succeed in achieving a health goal together, the idea became clear - I needed to celebrate the power of a partnership, with a gritty tone that gave people an honest perspective of AXA’s new partner programme.
The film was to be powerful, raw and unapologetically honest - key words I took throughout the ideation and production process. I used real people, scouting from all across the UK, in order to show a true representation of the power of working towards a goal, together.
A group of gritty welsh women, aptly named ‘The Bluetits’, caught my eye - so we followed them on their endeavours into cold open water at first light each morning. Spending a week with them in the Pembrokeshire Coast, I saw the true challenge of overcoming health battles; whether mental, emotional or physical, and the benefit of having a partner or friend right there beside you through it all.
The result, a powerful campaign film that focuses on real people and the true power of a partner - and a piece of work I am immensely proud of.
