Tonality development and visual strategy for images and film.

Getting the right tonality for your images is essential in conveying the desired mood and message to your audience. It sets the tone for the entire brand and can greatly impact the emotions and reactions of those who view it.

The challenge

In today's digital age, where visual content is consumed at an unprecedented rate, it's more important than ever to create imagery that stands out. The tonality you choose can make all the difference.

Henkel

The German company Henkel Adhesive Technologies approached Folkstudion with a brand identity project to craft and roll out a new visual expression. Which we did. Hundreds of sketches, lots of ideas and image productions in both Sweden and Germany resulted in Henkels updated brand-guidelines and a first batch of images. We looked at adding a fresh but recognisable look, full of warm and colourful products, details and real-life moments appealing to both business and end consumers.

Tibber

Tibber, one of the coolest green-tech companies in our opinion, asked us to create visual content with an everyday feel to it. The idea was to show their products in a recognizable setting, like we see them in real life. Punky and naked. In stark contrast to the retouched stuff that most competitors tend to offer.

Granitor

Granitor entrusted Folkstudion with developing a new tonality and visual strategy for the brand, suitable for both group and corporate levels to convey the message with the right tone and feeling. We approached this task by emphasizing the value Granitor and its employees create - and how we experience this within thriving communities and industries. The strategy involved capturing these emotions in various recognizable environments and distinguishing the messages while maintaining a clear visual expression. The result is the emergence of a unique visual voice for Granitor through films and images contributing to increased awareness, pride, shareability, and a strengthened brand identity.

Elite Hotels

Trough the years have Folkstudion been working on Elite Hotels tonality, in a broad range from the group-brand Elite Hotel to their sub-brands Ad Astra and The Wood Hotel. And we can proudly say there is a clear line betweenen before and after we started out. In genereall, we added a luxury, playful and recognisable look and feel to their brand. Ad Astra got their Italian inspired, almost fashion look while The Wood Hotel has their Nordic, clean style. So fun!
