The Botanist - Islay Dry Gin Brand Film
The botanist | Wild is a state of mind
After a long year of work, the brand film for The Botanist Gin is finally out worldwide! It’s been a very intense but highly rewarding one for me and the team that worked on it and we are very pleased with the final results. Despite the difficult year we all witnessed and the challenges that the pandemic brought, the team managed to produce a film that I’m really proud of. The four-minute film follows The Botanist's Professional Forager, James Donaldson, as he explores the furthest reaches of the island in his search for the 22 local botanicals that are used in the gin's distillation, before handing over his bounty to Head Distiller, Adam Hannett, to work his magic during a mysterious overnight distillation.
A collaboration between the amazing Bruichladdich Team, Director Zach Joseph and me. Visit the link for the full campaign.
