FCL - I'll Be Home For Christmas

PROJECT DETAILS

Challenge

Telling big stories in a personal way.

We all want to be told a good story. At Barbershop, every one of our editors, producers, directors, and cinematographers have something in common: we’re storytellers. This narrative driven, nationally televised commercial for FCL took us on a grand adventure through urban and rural Saskatchewan to tell an intimate story of a family connecting during the holidays. To execute a big-budget, multi-day shoot with a large assembly of cast, crew, and extras, we ensured everyone involved shared the same storytelling vision, so that even the most complicated scenes were communicated with clarity and simplicity.

DOP – Thomas Buchan
1ac – Robin Leveille
2ac – Kelvin Wong
Director – Jeremy Drummond
AD – Adam Kitter
Editing – Alex Stevens
VFX – Ian Buchko
Color – Post Pro Media

In just a few days, we shot in gas stations, airports, private homes, and highways. It seemed like a huge task. But everyone was so locked in, that it ended up turning out better than I ever expected.
