In the summer of 2021, we were commissioned by the Ludwigsburg-based production company Giganten Film with the press support for the TV film “Three Wheels, One Summer” (German title “Sommer auf drei Rädern”), a co-production with SWR, ORF and ARTE.
“Three Wheels, One Summer” is an entertaining coming-of-age comedy in which three extremely different characters embark on an adventurous road trip through the Swabian province. One almost said the word fast, but they are on the road in a Piaggio Ape. The small vehicle has only 11 horsepower—and can reach a top speed of 45 km/h.

In the first step, we developed the concept for a catchy key visual, which should sum up the character of the film and be suitable for various media applications: from the official film poster to use in social networks and integration in the media libraries of the co-producing TV stations.
In the second step, we realized the created idea and photographed the key visual at the end of July 2021 when cast and crew were filming in the Stuttgart area. Thanks to the support of producer Gerrit Klein, we were able to set up his own photo set right next to the film set, where we staged the Ape as well as the three main characters Flake, Kim, and Philipp. In this context, we also shot various character portraits for the broadcasters‘ media libraries.

In the third step, we created the film’s visual identity, designed the official film poster based on the final key visual, and conducted an extensive interview with director Marc Schlegel, DOP Mortimer Hochberg, and producer Gerrit Klein. After that, we created a comprehensive press kit to promote the film internationally.
