For the 2020 season, Scottish Ballet presented three iconic yet very different productions – Swan Lake, The Scandal at Mayerling and The Nutcracker. My challenge was to create a campaign that highlighted the unique qualities of each production, whilst remaining true to Scottish Ballet's overarching brand.
I created this short promo to tease the upcoming year on Scottish Ballet's social channels
Each production had its own personality within the brand. David Dawson's Swan Lake is stripped-down, sleek and stylish – a classic retold for a new generation.
A true story of death, desire and destruction, The Scandal at Mayerling sweeps us on an emotional rollercoaster through the Hapsburg court of the late 19th century.
The Nutcracker is a magical family adventure. Costumes plucked from the most gorgeous chocolate box and a story lifted straight from the pages of a classic fairy tale.
