Revelator directors Huay-Bing Law & Sam Mohney created the inspiring “Style at Play” project for @ephrancevintage. Drake and Roy Muyinza are the partnered duo behind Ephrance. Named after Drake’s mother back in Uganda, Ephrance curates maximalists looks highlighting bold patterns and color blocked garments of all eras for all bodies. Revelator was so proud to be involved with the project. Big congrats Ephrance and the entire team.

Here’s a Bronco-Heavy one from the comedy campaign we created for our nice friends over at Hagerty. The “Escape” TV broadcast campaign tells three different stories of vintage cars helping an overwhelmed owner find some inner peace. Revelator worked with @hagerty to develop a creative strategy for the campaign, which was directed by our own Matt Muir. The shoot was executed by the amazing cast and crew, which you can get to know below. And you can, of course, watch the whole campaign in our bio.

New work for Indian Motorcycle focuses on the stylistic design approach for the new Challenger Elite. We interviewed Sweden-based Director of Industrial Design Ola Stenegärd about his team's mission to create style in its boldest form. Revelator director Matt Muir developed a visual approach to be executed on an LED Volume stage. The creative strategy incorporates original design drawings, fabrication lab photography, and the final industrial design imagery to unveil the exclusive new Challenger Elite. A big thank you to the amazing crew below who helped execute the vision for our story!

Levi’s wanted to create a campaign that was emblematic of the brand’s focus on detail and quality.  Revelator director Jonn Herscend directed this piece as a short film for the @levis “Good Things Take Time” campaign. Jonn was inspired by the idea of slowness and the beauty that can be found in those simple moments. He found that inspiration on a trip to the Ozarks with his young daughter. “We were taking a walk in the woods and she stopped and looked at the ground and became super excited about a rock,” he recalls. “She picked it up, put it in her hand, and said she wanted to take it home.” He remembers that the rock wasn’t anything remarkable. But because of his daughter’s interest in it, the rock was transformed into something beautiful and special. “It was as though the rock magically contained that moment,” he said. “These moments happen all the time, and we are constantly moving and looking ahead.” He wanted to create a real-time experience to celebrate Levi’s interest in the beauty of detail. So he took that idea and worked with Levi’s and DP Shawn Michienzi in order to create “a beautiful moment where nothing happens.” Jonn and @shawnmichienzi scouted a location in Northern California by Pigeon Point Lighthouse, and found an ideal environment where the fog line broke and created an unmatched Golden Hour. The result was a thoughtful and meditative piece that delivers on the simple moment that inspired it. Jonn still has the rock.

Little Black Book sits down with Revelator in a new article about our indie filmmaking origins and the art of commercial storytelling. The Revelator partners visit with @LBBOnline about Chris Ohlson and Matt Muir's early years with the company, and why new partner Jonn Herschend brought his skills from the world of modern art and experimental film. "Matt has a distributed feature and short films under his belt, and Chris is a Sundance Fellow and a Spirit Award winner," Jonn said. "These guys weren’t just making commercials. They were making interesting, creative, and sometimes brilliantly weird projects.” We believe Revelator’s approach can be identified by how we've taken our passion and expertise in indie filmmaking and applied it to the commercial world. Hit the link in our bio to read our chat with LBB about our creative inspiration and unique approach to commercial production. by 📸 @annieraydotnet

Robert De Niro and Meryl Streep recently helped us honor the Harry Ransom Center at the "Celebration of Film" Gala. Revelator sponsored and provided a celebration film for the event, which is an appreciation of a new endowment called the "De Niro Curator of Film." Revelator is a storytelling company and our roots are in independent film, so we were honored to help celebrate this new endowment. The humanities research center has extensive archives that provide unique insight into the creative process of some of our finest writers and artists. The collections are available to students and the public, to promote the understanding and appreciation of literature, photography, film, art, and the performing arts. Watch the full celebration film a the link in our bio, and visit the Harry Ransom Center soon to get a first-hand look at the process behind some of the most brilliant creative minds in modern history.
