Industry challenges

Digital excellence

In luxury and premium beauty, a poor video costs more than no video at all. The challenge on TikTok and Instagram is twofold: adopting the platforms' fast-paced codes without damaging an image built over years. The right content shows the material, the gesture and the experience, with lighting and pacing that stay true to the house. We produce vertical videos for beauty brands, premium beauty institutes, perfumery retailers and designer brands. Art direction, filming in store, in the institute or in our studio in Paris, careful colour grading: every shot is designed for 9:16 from the outset, not cropped after the fact. The result has to hold up on a TikTok account as well as in a Meta Ads campaign.

Why now

Luxury customers also discover brands on social media, and expect the same standards as in store. When Marionnaud wanted to launch its TikTok account for its 40th anniversary, the challenge was precisely to find a tone native to TikTok while staying within the DNA of a premium retailer: the account went from 0 to 10,000 followers. For the Makina institute in Paris, an elegant editorial line supported 240% growth in the active customer base. Premium image and performance are not at odds, as long as both are designed together.

What you get

How we work with you

01

Bespoke art direction

We start from your story and your brand guidelines: locations, lighting, styling, pacing. The moodboard is approved before filming, so every image respects the brand's world.

02

Meticulous filming, attention to detail

Close-ups of materials and textures, care or craft gestures, carefully worked lighting. Our crews film in store, in the institute or in our studio in Paris with their own equipment.

03

Colour grading and variations

We develop a colour signature that is recognisable from one video to the next, then adapt each piece of content for the organic account, advertising and your other channels, always in native 9:16.

Formats that work

The video formats that work in your industry

01

The gesture in close-up

The texture of a cream, a bottle being opened, silk sliding. This sensory format, close to ASMR, conveys what a photo cannot show. We used it for Nami Kin Ko, a brand of kintsugi-inspired objects.

02

Launching a TikTok account

Editorial line, visual style, first videos and first weeks of posting: an account built from A to Z, as for Marionnaud. The tone adapts to TikTok without losing the brand's DNA.

03

The customer experience on film

The treatment experienced from the inside, the welcome in store, the before and after. For Makina, this format drove a strategy that increased footfall at the institute by 185% in six months.

04

The creator or ambassador

A creator recognised by your target audience presents the brand in her own words. Framed well, this format adds credibility without feeling like overt advertising.

Yes, as long as you take as much care over the image as over the pace. Marionnaud launched its TikTok account with us for its 40th anniversary and grew it from 0 to 10,000 followers, without giving up its positioning.

By designing shots for 9:16 from the moodboard stage, taking care over lighting and colour grading, and avoiding trendy effects that date quickly. Consistency from one video to the next matters more than any single effect.

Yes, in Paris and anywhere in France, as well as in our studio in Paris. We organise filming around your customers' experience.

The budget depends on the art direction, the number of locations and shooting days, the talent on camera and the number of videos. We put together a quote once we understand your world and your objectives.

Yes, we produce for RED (Xiaohongshu), the platform where a large Chinese audience discovers beauty and fashion brands and places to go in Paris. See our dedicated RED page.
