Back To The Roots
Nicolas — Water Polo Athlete
Nicolas, a water polo athlete building his personal brand, wanted more than a match recap. He brought his US team to his home country, Montenegro, to play, and we built the film around that return: the intensity of the sport and the preparation set against the feeling of coming home. Kinetic editing and heavy sound design carry the journey, anchored by key frames of Montenegro itself.

What we did
A creative project to scale Nicolas’s personal brand: consultation, direction and a cinematic aftermovie built around his return home with his US team.
Pre-production
Moodboards and a full creative plan set the tone before filming. The pre-production was strong enough that it helped Nicolas land a sportswear sponsorship before the edit was even delivered.
Production
Two filming days in Montenegro with a tight crew: hybrid shooter, camera assistant and photographer, capturing both the match intensity and the home-country story.
Post-production
Edited in DaVinci Resolve with kinetic, fast-paced cutting and heavy sound design to mirror the intensity of the sport, delivered within seven days.
Sponsorship
Our pre-production and direction helped Nicolas secure a sportswear brand sponsorship off the back of the project.
New direction
Gave Nicolas a premium aftermovie format and a clear personal-brand direction to keep building on.
