THE STORY

In collaboration with In-house Ideas, a strategic consulting company providing white glove hospitality and event production, Pernod Ricard curated an ‘evening of luxury’ for a select group of VIP consumers & special guests at their Park Ave HQ.

THE EVENT

The evening featured luxury foods, including oysters on the half shell eaten on a terrace overlooking Park Avenue, handmade chocolates, and hand-rolled cuban cigars. The idea was to immerse oneself in luxury for a couple of hours and then share thoughts in a Jonsar Studios on-camera interview as to what luxury means.

We had limited space to work with in the company’s lounge/common area. A low overhead clearance, just under 8 feet tall and 8 feet wide, kept our set compact. We chose an elegant, timeless black backdrop to create portraits of groups and individuals. Our GIFs and portraits streamed live to a series of 65” LCD’s for everyone to enjoy.

A Jonsar Studios team member with roving camera and microphone interviewed guests to get their personal insights on the meaning of luxury. We later edited the results into a short film for Pernod Ricard.

IN THEIR OWN WORDS:

I am blown away not only by the wonderful experience you created for our guests, but also by the film that you created for our happy hour and luxury project. Thank you!
— Kate Zaman, Prestige Development Manager, Pernod Ricard
