Explore Creates New Comedy Content For Go Rving
illi News/10057589

CHICAGO - illiNews -- Explore, a commercial production company creating award-winning commercials & digital content for advertisers, was awarded and recently completed the production of a nationally distributed digital content advertisement for Go RVing.

"The Stubborn Camper" is a comedic take on the differences between camping in a tent vs. an RV. Explore worked directly with the marketing team at Go RVing, who provided a loose idea of the concept. Explore produced from beginning to end, collaborating with their LA-based partner Brendan Beachman to write and direct the commercial. Shot in December in the Santa Monica foothills, the commercial follows two couples who take vastly different approaches to how they camp in the great outdoors. One couple chooses to bring an RV, while the other couple struggles to setup a tent before nature's elements arrive in an onset of progressive plagues. Rain, fire, and wind effects were all needed to hilarious results, and everything was successfully captured practically during production. The crescendo of the spot includes an infestation of mosquitoes, which along with some filled in elements, were added as visual effects in post.

Finish was achieved using Nice Shoes for color, Dan Bewick for mix/sound design, and then back to Explore for VFX / final finish.

"Let's face it: being outside is wonderful, but you can only tent-camp so long without running into trouble, just like our characters" says Explore's Executive Producer, Jeremy Pinckert. "It's nice to have a roof over your head when you sleep. We're so excited to once again partner with Go RVing to create digital content which has a nationwide reach. The marketing team led by Courtney Bias and overseen by Karen Redfern are extremely collaborative, and we are honored they trusted our team to create this digital :60 ad, and  stay-tuned there's a :30 version as well."

The ad is being placed through digital channels, and can be viewed on Go RVing's YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pu0yARS_LwM
