Write a short summary of what happens in the film
The film chronicles the power of hair through a series of interviews from different perspectives. While it is not revealed outright, the red thread across these different speakers is that they are members of the trans or gender non-binary communities. The film is driven by interviews are taking place within a studio setting. Intertwined, to create interest, there are two other components in the film. Firstly, flashback scenes that depict poignant hair memories of the past such as hair cuts, styling hair with barettes in the bathroom. Secondly, close ups of our cast touching their hair, looking into camera, dancing. The film ends with all of the cast members standing together, representing unity.
Tell the jury about the casting process.
Casting process was the most important part of the campaign because we cannot manufacture or underestimate the role of hair in the trans and gender non-binary communities. The casting process was rigorous and a complete 180 degree change for how Pantene normally casts. As a hair care brand, casting is usually centered around hair type. In this process,however, we used a combination of questionnaires, self tapes and interviews to find our cast. Questionnaires spanned topics like “do you love your hair in its current state?”, “what is best hair day”. The emotional attachment and journey with hair was center stage and aligned with Pantene’s new mission: “better hair days for everyone”.
