02 Challenge

How do we create a story and look that stand apart from every other ski resort without alienating the audience?

03 STRATEGY

Inspired by the new slogan, Täydellinen käännös / Anatomy of a Turn, we decided to focus on snowboard carving as a symbol for new beginnings, mindful movement, and the chase for elusive, simple perfection.

04 Creative solution

We crafted a bold black and white look that immediately sets Pikku-Syöte apart from the norm, challenging the status quo. We set out to create an art piece, longer than a typical commercial film, that also elevates the act of carving to an art form.

05 IMPLEMENTATION

We enlisted the best snowboard carvers of the North and sent them to Pikku-Syöte with our production crew, who are also keen carving enthusiasts. The material they turned in was nothing short of stunning.

06 Impact

The story of Pikku-Syöte is released little by little, creating an organic narrative that seeks to find an audience as exacting and assured as the people behind the rebirth of Pikku-Syöte.
