Description:
Cherokee Casinos needed a branding spot introducing Tulsa’s new Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. An initial pitch and a series of client discussions led to the simple premise that the Hard Rock/Tulsa would be a “one-stop-shop” for fun! Director Bill Aylward developed a storyboard detailing the way by which to deliver this message in 30 seconds.

Live-action, CGI and special effects were employed to bring a heightened sense of magic to the Hard Rock experience. Although the brand is target-rich, it was imperative to deliver a spot that retained an appeal to regional sensibilities. Choices in casting and music were made to attract a young, affluent crowd without alienating the pre-existing older clientele.
