Sytner Rebrand - Project #2 - Video Content
Video Part #1
Sytner Group required a fresh suite of content to promote their wide product range and ever-changing demographic. Our brief was to capture snapshots of the customer journey, highlighting premium brands and showcasing Sytner’s showrooms. The video would need to serve as background homepage content with the ability to be repurposed for future articles, social posts and in-store video content. We worked with marketing and IT teams at Sytner from concept through to delivery, ensuring the project completed on time and within budget, whilst meeting all technical requirements.
When the production team weren’t scaling the inclines of Winnat’s Pass in typical Peak District weather, they were roaming the streets of Camden with an Audi e-Tron and an R8 for safe measure, in what felt like the very encapsulation of “street art”. Another part of the production took place at Millbrook Proving Ground. A large section of road was cordoned off with exclusive use for our production which saw our FPV pilot, Ben, give chase to Maserati’s MC20 and Lamborghini’s Aventador SVJ. The production came to a close to the tune of Lamborghini’s sonorous V12 ripping through asphalt and rainwater, disappearing into a veil of smoke and steam.

Producing effective video content for the automotive industry is no easy task. Video production requires a unique combination of creative, technical and marketing skills to create content that resonates with the target audience and drives sales. One of the biggest challenges of producing video content for this sector is staying ahead of the competition. Companies are always innovating and creating new products, so video production needs to keep up with the latest trends. Car videos should be visually appealing, entertaining and informative to ensure they stand out from the competition. Another challenge of producing the content for this industry is creating content that appeals to a wide range of viewers. The car industry is a highly competitive one and companies need to ensure their videos reach a broad range of potential customers. This means creating videos that are engaging, interesting, and relevant to the target audience. Lastly, the videos need to be tailored to the specific brand and model. Content needs to be designed around the company’s brand image, product features, and customer needs. This requires a thorough understanding of the company’s products, customer base, and branding objectives. The content should reflect the company’s values and mission, as well as its unique selling points.
