Christmas Spot by Juan Carlos Cajiao

Posted: Tuesday, December 21, 2010 by Juan Carlos Cajiao Velasco Freelance Director and Director Of Photography in Labels: , , , , , , , , ,


This new spot uses the classic Christmas song from Caracol Channel with a childhood touch.

The kids just built all the decorating stuff from recycled elements and textures to dress up the huge tree on the set.

Was an intense day with almost 40 kids running around the set. But at the final cut a great and cozy look was the reward!

Shot on HDCam using Digiprime lenses, the look was pristine and colorful.





Merry Christmas for everyone!!
