Introduce

This project creates an invitation via a vintage telephone from the vintage store, Beacon's closet. In this video, two telephones are talking to each other. With the spotlight, looks like a little stage play.















Sketch& Process


This telephone is 120 years old. The reason for choosing this 1900s antique teleohone is because of the two small bells on this telephone, and the microphone. It feels like facial expression, giving more personality to this telephone.





Brief

The story starts by dialing a phone number through using a dial pad. After that, another phone will ring and vibrate. When the phone is picked up, here is the conversation:






Treatment

There are two telephones are having a conversation. They have their own stage and their own point light, like a stage play. And who is the speaker, who is illuminated. One telephone would be responsible for saying the branding message, and the other one would be responsible for answering. 



Since this is more like a short video of a commercial, it won’t be given close-ups during the conversation in order to maintain the integrity. The only two close-ups will be at the very beginning, one is the dialing of the dial and the other is the ringing shot.
