Norweld Adelaide

Norweld built a new Isuzu D-Max display vehicle and needed it to look as good on a screen as it does at a show. We shot it twice: once in a pine forest, putting the tray and canopy through mud and water and showing off every feature, and again on the beach for the hero shots. We also filmed both shoots and handed the raw footage straight to Norweld's in-house team, so they could cut it into videos for their own channels. Back at Norweld's Adelaide workshop, we also documented a tray build for Lucas Contracting, from the first bolts to the finished Hilux.
