Flemish Tile-lifting Championship 2024

non-profit
A day without lifting a tile just isn't worthwhile. So off we went, together with the Flemish Government, two famous familiar faces and a merry band of extras to lift tiles and make room for green.

A battle between two teams turned into a rhythmic campaign video, guided by Audiotheque. Turning grinding discs into music? That’s right up our street.
Our approach

Prepared down to the smallest pebble

Lifting tiles might not sound appealing. But with mounting tension, an epic battle and a little something to whet the appetite, everything shattered loose. Literally. 

With a detailed script in our pocket, the cast and crew were able to seamlessly and powerfully deliver their scenes, even in the brutal Belgian weather. A well-organized shoot day, endless props, and solid camerawork: not a tile was left unturned.

Our solution

Enthusiasm, come rain or shine

We had one day to capture the battle on film. One drizzly day, to be exact. The typical Flemish weather could have put a damper on the toasts and laughter, but thanks to teamwork, understanding, strong communication and the cast and crew's sheer professionalism, the enthusiasm couldn't be washed away.

Many thanks, as well, to the municipality of Sint-Gillis-Waas, an indispensable help in making this shooting day successful.

Finalize

Western-inspired puzzling

To transform grinding discs, pickaxes and flying tiles into a musical ensemble, a fiery tango unfolded between our editor and Audiotheque. We pieced together the perfect harmony of sound and image. To complete the puzzle, we invited the client to settle in and waltz through the first cut with us.

“Het Bataljon is a strong and flexible team that will not let its enthusiasm dwindle in the event of a setback - such as bad weather on set - or an extra request from the client.

For our tile-flipping campaign, they took one of our concepts and collaboratively shaped it into a compelling and authentic Bataljon video, marked by their own distinct input.”
