Goldwin : Branded Film 2019

2019
Only Image
JKD planned and produced a brand film for Goldwin, a brand that has spent more than 50 years developing comfortable, functional apparel using the technology it has cultivated in the field of skiing. The setting was the backcountry of Hachimantai, a 1,613-meter peak spanning Iwate and Akita Prefectures. In this dreamlike film, only a single ski track is drawn across an empty, silver-white slope, throwing up clouds of snow and expressing the world of the Goldwin brand, which is infused with the spirit of minimalism. For the shoot, the latest drone, the DJI Inspire 2, was used, and backcountry specialists Katsuyuki Kono and Kazushige Sekiya, who were stationed on a ridge about two kilometers away, were captured carving down the snowfield with a high-speed camera. In this version, the skiers were removed in post-production, emphasizing the beauty of the tracks etched into the silver-white slope and the presence of the unseen skiers, resulting in a piece that allows the audience to feel as though they themselves are blending into nature. Directed by Chris Ladds. Music by Berlin-based composer Midori Hirano.
