Write a short summary of what happens in the film

The hero car makes a spectacular arrival and other Hyundai SUVs welcomes VENUE to the family. The plotline is simple to clearly accentuate the profoundly sophisticated message. The first half of the film is dedicated to emphasize and story-tell the VENUE’s remarkable arrival. Following quick back-and-forth between the immaculate airplane sequences and gnarly inside cargo scenes, we peak into each Hyundai SUV coming together for VENUE’s landing. A series of dramatic aerial/driving stunts were performed capture the audience for the later part of the film. Opening the second half of the film, we fully reveal VENUE to the audience in a spectacular fashion. VENUE’s movement, posture and aura build the ‘Go-getter’ character for the vehicle. He marches through the fleet of Hyundai SUVs to meet the chief, PALISADE. VENUE takes a stand and proves his worth. Then, PALISADE and the Hyundai SUV family approves and welcomes VENUE.

Cultural/Context information for the jury

VENUE is Hyundai’s new compact SUV. Our mission is to give VENUE an impactful presence for its first landing. Since our main target is young millennials and generation Z purchasing their first vehicle, we diversified our strategy by using online media, more viral medium in a digital generation today. Therefore, instead of using an obvious commercial film, we generated a less than 3 min short film with added suspense to target audiences like generation Z who are more familiar with videos. In the film, VENUE is a rookie making its first entrance to the world. However, rather than being intimidated or obedient as it faces the great PALISADE, VENUE presents its self-confidence to prove its worth. (In the end, VENUE is accepted to join as a member of the Hyundai SUV family.) This charming and confident vibe portrayed in the film figuratively reflects on our main target gen z’s lifestyle.
