Creating this video presented several challenges that required a specialized skill set and a strategic approach:

Our Aproach

To meet the broad and nuanced requirements of the project, HAPS Agency deployed a multifaceted approach:

Comprehensive Understanding of the Industry

HAPS Agency, led by Michael Trajan Todoran, brought a unique combination of skills and experience to the project. Michael’s background as the host of “The Landscape Architecture Podcast” provided him with deep insights into the industry, which proved invaluable in understanding and conveying EPTDESIGN’s vision. This experience, combined with his decade-long career as a landscape architect, enabled him to approach the project with an in-depth understanding of the intricacies of landscape architecture.

Expert Team Assembly

To bring the vision to life, HAPS Agency assembled a team of specialists, including a professional videographer and a music composer. The videographer’s expertise in capturing architectural and landscape elements added depth and richness to the visual narrative, while the composer created a bespoke soundtrack that enhanced the emotional impact of the video.

Visual and Emotional Impact

Michael’s background as an architectural photographer and independent documentary filmmaker was instrumental in creating a visually stunning video. His keen eye for detail and understanding of landscape architecture allowed him to capture imagery that not only showcased the projects but also evoked emotions, resonating deeply with the audience.

Strategic Coordination and Project Management

Effective project management was key to the success of this video. HAPS Agency coordinated over a dozen in-person interviews at various locations, including Park City, Utah; Pasadena, California; and Irvine, California. Each interview was carefully planned to ensure that the narratives aligned with EPTDESIGN’s objectives.

Weekly progress meetings were held with EPTDESIGN to ensure that the project remained on track and that the evolving narrative continued to meet the client’s expectations.

Crafting an Authentic Narrative

One of the primary challenges was to maintain an authentic narrative that stayed true to EPTDESIGN’s vision. This was achieved by leveraging Michael’s experience as a landscape architecture professor, which honed his ability to convey complex ideas in a concise and engaging manner. The narrative was carefully crafted to reflect EPTDESIGN’s long-term goals, emphasizing their commitment to innovative design and sustainable practices.

Outcome

The final product was a highly successful corporate video that effectively communicated EPTDESIGN’s 10-year vision. The video was well-received by both the client and the audience, serving as a powerful tool in showcasing the firm’s forward-thinking approach to landscape architecture.
