Lowes Holiday
2022
Lowe’s was feeling the holiday spirit this year so we teamed up with Deutsch on a holiday campaign to help them celebrate in style. With a sparkle of CG magic and some heart-warming live action, we brought the Lowe’s Gable to life, and decked the halls with bells and power tools.
About that Gable...
Just what is a gable? Well, it’s that triangular portion of the wall where it meets the edge of the roof pitches. And it's also a descriptor for the well-known Lowes logo which served as the centerpiece of our holiday campaign.
We dressed the Lowes gable in its finest festive outfits and placed it in the center of over a dozen art directed vignettes. A mix of practical and VFX allowed us the flexibility to let our imagination run wild.
Capturing holiday magic
A cast of hard working elves helped us pull this production together over a busy four day shoot. Featuring a stage build, a house location, and both interior and exterior Lowes store setups, we were able to transform the balmy SoCal environs into a winter wonderland.
Enhancing the magic
We wanted to give these setups something extra special — so we augmented the gables in post and in some cases built them entirely in CG in order to achieve that ‘magical realism’ feel that only the holidays can bring.
