THE CHALLENGE

Ambient is notorious for making the impossible possible, and this project was yet another testament to that. Working within the budget to gather the amount of content they needed was challenging enough, but doing it within the allotted timeframe was the cherry on top. Scouting was a must, not only to get eyes on Mad Industries car garage ahead of time, but to also work out the details of how we were going to capture the Straits’ biking adventure in Sedona. It took some skilled producers who were not only knowledgeable about the surrounding area, but were willing to knock on a few doors to get it done.

 FINAL DELIVERABLES

A FORD SEMA NIGHT SPECIAL

2020 was well… 2020, enough said. Hence why Sema Auto Nights took their car show virtual and had to send teams all across the country to gather content and create engaging sizzles that introduced a ton of new automobiles and innovations. One of those was the new Ford Bronco, which hadn’t seen a new model since the mid-90s. Ambient linked up with Mad Industries and a famous downhill power couple to put the new SUV to the ultimate test in the great outdoors of Sedona, Arizona.

EDITED STILLS

Capturing such a pivotal moment in the Ford Bronco’s history was a no brainer. Content, content and more content was needed for this breakout story and we had not only a beautiful new vehicle to capture, but outstanding scenery in the high country of Arizona. It was equally important to capture the days leading up to the reveal where Mad Industries took us on a journey in their top of the line auto garage to show us how the pros custom rig something for the ultimate outdoor adventure.

THE IMPACT

A truckload of usable content for the Imagination team to sink their teeth into and create a compelling sizzle to drum up anticipation of the long-awaited SUV at the SEMA Auto Nights Virtual Car Show. Content that would give a potential thrill-seeking owner a vision of how they can customize their new Broncos for the ultimate adventure. Not to mention creating appeal amongst outdoor enthusiasts. 

"The team at Ambient Skies killed our shoot with the new Bronco Sport! We had a blast working with them in Sedona and the video was a big success for Ford at Sema 2021!"
