Brand identity film & video + image content bank

Chez Wam Restaurant, winner of the FACT Newcomer Of The Year (source) award is where head chef & co-founder Hadrien Villedieu has brought a life’s worth of culinary experiences together to create a fine-dining experience like no other. When we first met with Hadrien he was able to help us better understand his unique vision, his back story, & the concept behind Chez Wam; from the cuisines & flavours he explores through his cooking to the music that inspires him.

With a clear idea of the Chez Wam brand & its values, we were able to define a creative direction & aesthetic in addition to a content strategy which would help to differentiate the brand whilst staying true to its roots. After this was done, we went about creating a comprehensive content bank that embodied the vibe & atmosphere of the restaurant itself, as well as the customer experience.

Ultimately, as well as a stand-alone mini documentary on who Chef Hadrien is and what he intended Chez Wam to be, we delivered a complete suite of photo and video assets designed to establish the restaurant’s visual identity and provide their marketing team with enough content to last several months.

From high quality images of the food & cocktails, to vertical reels focusing on the bar, cocktail making, the menu, the venue décor, and the chef’s techniques & personal style, we delivered a comprehensive bank of content that could be used across multiple social channels, their website, as well as for other marketing channels & Press Releases.

This is a well thought through example of the type of all-encompassing content bank we enjoy creating for premium restaurants. Through careful pre-production planning and efficient on-set execution, we were able to create content that only shows what the guests will find on their plate when they visit Chez Wam, but the atmosphere they’ll come to love & more importantly, come back for.

An Omakase Experience, with Chef Gregoire Berger

Created as the centrepiece of a limited-time collaboration with Michelin-starred Chef Grégoire Berger, this campaign focused on precision, restraint, and elevated culinary storytelling.

Following a carefully curated director’s treatment, Resonate produced a cinematic hero film which was to serve as the central content pillar of the campaign, as well as multiple dish-specific vertical reels to help build a content bank for social media. We also delivered a full image gallery to help drive & sustain prolonged engagement with this campaign via Sushi Art’s social media channels.

Shot with controlled lighting, multiple camera setups, DZO cine lenses, (including a 90mm macro & 24mm Probe lens) the content captured the colours, intensity & details of chef Gregoire’s omakase experience - from process to presentation - delivering a bold visual campaign designed to raise awareness and sustain engagement. This was a perfect example of hospitality content creation done right, & a solid example of our passion for restaurant videography & photography.

Take a quick look behind the scenes of this campaign and watch the BTS video we created. Starting the day out with an interview, framing chef Gregoire front and centre, we then split into two teams, with one camera unit filming super detailed, macro shots of the different dishes on the Omakase menu, and the other team filming B roll with chef Gregoire as he intricately crafted each dish and provided his finishing touches.

Hospitality Lifestyle & Property Content

As part of our hospitality content package for NH Collection, we first aligned with the client to understand the key message, as well as the key characteristics they wanted to showcase. This meant understanding their core offering and who the campaign was aimed at; their target market. For this hospitality campaign specifically they wanted to promote the staycation package for expats living in Dubai, and cater to a young, female audience looking to enjoy a hotel escape for a weekend. The meant showcasing all the different types of amenities wrapped up in that experience, from the infinity pool to the gym, the sports bar to the roof top bar, etc. On top of this we also wanted to highlight their close proximity to the beach and the watersports on offer for their guests.

We crafted a mood board, and then a detailed shot list which outlined our storyboard. The client was able to see every single shot that we had in mind, as well as the clever transitions which would help us to seamlessly travel from one scene to the next. By getting a few extra shots on the days of the shoot we were able to create additional vertical reels in post-production focusing on specific amenities. The long format film from this video campaign was promoted on Instagram and various other social channels, as well as played on various screens around the hotel. The benefit of the long format video being that it’s long enough for hotel guests see a different part of the video and a different amenity, every time they come across it at the hotel. This is a big bonus for both the hotel and the guests. Guided by a structured pre-production plan, the shoot balanced architectural detail with fun, lifestyle moments, ensuring we showcased the hotel in the best possibly light whilst also showing our cast enjoying an amazing staycation!

Tourism Destination Campaign

Working with Sky News & MiddleTable (a creative agency based out of London), over the past 5 years we have had the opportunity to film a series of stunning promotional content for Visit Qatar. This has given us the chance to travel all over the country, meeting not only an exceedingly hospitable diverse cast of locals, artisans & business owners, but to get to visit some of the most stunning places & environments Qatar has to offer. From the city skyline to souks, villages, sand dunes, mangroves & beaches, we have been lucky enough to have seen (and captured) it all! Visiting idyllic desert retreats, kitesurfing in turquoise waters, checking out the F1 tracks & FIFA football stadiums, not to mention sampling all the local cuisine, we had an absolute blast creating these campaigns.

Filming with underwater cameras, as well as drones and various other camera units, over the course of this content series we were able to capture unique perspectives and breathtaking visuals to help showcase the activities, architecture & unique culture of Qatar. These campaigns balanced intimate & elevated luxury experiences with more down to earth tourist & hospitality experiences, offering a compelling narrative of exploration that invites the viewer to experience Qatar as a unique destination, & to go beyond the surface.

Testimonial from Adam at MiddleTable

“Working with Resonate Media House was a real pleasure. Totally professional, but also fun to work with. Resonate Media House supplied us the total production crew for three television tourism adverts that aired on Sky in the UK. Looking forward to working with the team again!"

Desert Resort Campaign

Set within a mesmerising, idyllic desert landscape, this campaign is a good example of luxury hotel content creation, wherein we had to position Mysk Al Badayer as the quintessential quiet, relaxing retreat guests can go to escape & unwind. This hotel resort is positioned as a refined & elevated, experience-led retreat. The main brief from the hotel, which had only recently opened, was to create a long format video that could be played on a loop in the lobby area where guests are greeted and wait to be taken to their private villas & suites.

he hotel wanted us to create a slow-paced, relaxing video campaign which would give their guests a glimpse into what they can expect over their stay, whilst also showcasing the hotel & it’s amenities from various vantage points. For this campaign we heavily used the drone as it was a fantastic way to showcase the secluded desert setting, as well as the beautifully designed architecture. A luxury, modern twist on a Bedouin tent.

Our team were on set for two days only, but we managed to capture the various accommodations, activities, and atmosphere, paying careful attention to the shadows, light, intimate spaces, and over feeling of what it is like to spend time in this beautiful place. With full pre, production & post-production handled in-house - from planning to execution - the entire campaign was crafted by the team at Resonate Media House.

Tourism & Cultural Storytelling

For Visit Saudi, we delivered a large-scale tourism content campaign designed to reflect the country’s diversity, ambition, and evolving global identity. Working across multiple locations, our team produced a series of short-format cinematic video assets, capturing landscapes, cultural experiences, and everyday moments that invite discovery. Guided by a clearly defined creative framework and detailed pre-production planning, the project was executed efficiently using our in-house production equipment. The final content was developed for international tourism marketing, supporting digital campaigns, brand storytelling, and global audience engagement across multiple platforms.

Luxury Glamping & Wellness Content

For Mysk Moon Retreat, the brief centred on tranquillity, privacy, and an immersion in nature. Through a well-defined creative treatment, we produced a cinematic video and bank of lifestyle photography, highlighting the retreat’s unique accommodation and slow-living philosophy. Shot with a minimal, efficient & experienced crew using the Sony FX3 & FX6 on DZO lenses, this campaign delivered a calm, elevated aesthetic designed to support wellness-focused storytelling across digital platforms.

A local, homegrown Emirati restaurant

For Gerbou, a Dubai-based restaurant rooted in Emirati heritage, as well as a hub promoting local artists, we create monthly photo & video content focused on cultural storytelling, showing their target market the unique atmosphere, design aesthetic, menu offering & overall guest experience. Guided by a clearly defined creative treatment, whenever we are on set with Gerbou we always strive to capture the cleverly designed space, food presentation, and dining rituals that shape this guest experience.

Using all our own in-house equipment, we balance aesthetics of a modern menu with elegant, slow-paced visuals, all of which is aligned with the brand’s identity. A modern, progressive twist on traditional values & visuals. The final assets were designed for restaurant marketing, social media, and brand storytelling across digital platforms.

F&B / PRODUCT

For Bustanica, the world’s largest vertical farm, we produced an educational “How to Make a Fattoush Salad” video using their ready-to-eat lettuce range. The project combined food styling, step-by-step recipe storytelling, and clean visual composition to create content that was both informative and brand-led. Supported by pre-production planning and a clear creative framework, filming was executed using our in-house cinema equipment to maintain quality, consistency & clarity. The final video was developed for digital marketing and social media, helping position Bustanica’s produce as both accessible and premium within the fresh food and wellness space.
