STIHL X RBGV

An ongoing series of seasonal videos created to launch a partnership between STIHL and Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria. Shot in Melbourne Botanic Gardens and profiling members of the various garden teams in their day to day working lives.

 

Winter in the Gardens

2019

Second Camera Operator | Editor | Colorist

This video follows head arborist Will Jones as he cares for the site’s 6000+ trees, using STIHL tools.

We wanted this video to be largely emotion driven, putting Will’s story at the forefront and taking a more passive approach to the product. We used vintage Leica lenses to emphasise the beauty of the location, and combined this with aerial footage to give a unique and dramatic perspective of Will’s work in the tree.

Spring in the Gardens

2019

Second Camera Operator | Editor | Colorist

This video follows Horticulturists Matt and Alex as they undertake their Spring lawn care and pruning responsibilities.

Maintaining a similar tone and aesthetic to the Winter production, but with a little more focus on product and practical advice, our intention was to continue the series but go a little more in-depth after the initial launch.
