It is Monday morning, the temperature is 43°C and we are already exhausted. Energy City, Houston Texas, takes its toll. But like the product we are going to shoot a movie for, we are going to stay reliable.
The German manufacturer Voith Turbo is all about long lasting technology. Speed drives, gear units and actuators are the buzz words. To promote the hydrodynamic variable speed planetary gear “Vorecone” we developed a storytelling concept and did a summer trip to Houston. There we made a product feature film, which is not the standard speech of praise, but a likeable, personal story about a man and the machine – a story about “A long life in Oil & Gas”.
Tim – an actual worker at an oil compressor station – is showing us around and telling us about his many years of experience with the product “Vorecone”.
Brand storytelling at its best, great visuals and a guy who couldn’t be more sympathetic, authentic and American – even if he wanted to.
Testify!
