Independent Spirits: Trailer
Home / Project Details
ABOUT THE PROJECT
Created by the visionary team behind The Water of Life – A Whisky Film, this new series shines a light on a lesser-known, yet highly influential sector of the whisky world: Independent Bottlers. Initially planned as a companion piece to The Water of Life, Independent Spirits evolved into a comprehensive four-part series, capturing the creativity, passion, and craftsmanship that drive this sector of the industry.
We cut one of the two trailers for the series, now on major streamers such as Amazon Prime. We wanted the trailer to showcase how independent bottlers brought excitement back into a stale and stagnant industry… by doing the unexpected.
Creative Direction
The theme of the full documentary is the struggles and triumphs of independent bottlers of Scotch whisky. We wanted to show the passion they have and what makes them unique, while getting the viewer to wonder what the excitement is all about.
