The making of our own image film
When it’s your birthday, you get presents. To celebrate UVA’s 30th anniversary, we made an image film. So that you can finally find out first-hand what we actually do all day.
To make this perfect, we have looked after ourselves just as professionally as we do our customers. We are good at producing films, and we have even won awards for some of them.
Before the movie: What should it be?
Every movie starts with an idea. Our idea was to show UVA as it really is. Charming colleagues, modern workplaces, the whole thing in Babelsberg. But it should also be entertaining. We want you to stay tuned and not switch off.
From the idea to the shoot
The idea was first turned into a storyboard that already contained the plot in scenes, with image ideas and text. This was discussed, debated and changed several times by the film team. The copywriter handed the finished storyboard to the art director, who used it to create a neat, detailed script for the film team.
Our UVA film was realized by Hauptstadt-TV. There were several days of filming at the agency and at various locations in Babelsberg. The texts were then recorded in German and English.
We did everything else ourselves: we built the sets, got the props, make-up and costumes. We also played ourselves. If you were lucky, you were there for the scenes in which a lot of food was eaten.
The result
The result is an image film that we could not have made any better for our customers. So that you never again wonder what we actually do here all day, film off for “UVA in 3 minutes”.
Our movie is now also available in English: watch it now!
