TV commercial, TV promo and online video for NGO Cordaid Memisa to raise awareness for maternal death and the fact that every minute somewhere in the world a woman dies during or after giving birth. The campaign was mainly aimed at fundraising.
For this spot, we travelled to Dhaka, Bangladesh with a mini crew of three (director, DOP and producer) and together with our fabulous local team (kudos to 19 Film Factory!) we did the local shooting with a small crew, using a lot of what we found on the spot. We worked with a great Bangladesh young actress and shot the entire commercial on the Canon 5D. The remaining part of the commercial was shot in a studio in Amsterdam.
The video shown is our directors cut, you can watch the client’s version here
