@essesmag Ferrari called. We answered. This July, @scuderiaferrari exclusively invited @essesmag to their closed-door filming day at the new @madring_oficial and peeled back the curtain for us to capture the day. In the heat of the Spanish sun, we shot 25 rolls of film photography, 250 feet of vintage Super-8 video, and exclusive interviews with @lewishamilton and @charles_leclerc It’s hard not to share everything we captured all at once. But we want to peel back that curtain for you, too, one post at a time. Check out even more on esses.com 📸🎞️: @alicejacquesa

Narrative framework

The structural pattern this video runs on

Framework

The Call and Response Framework

Establish brand authority and create intrigue by framing a partnership as a two-part story: a high-status entity makes a request ('The Call') and the brand fulfills it ('The Response'), all within a single, impactful visual.

  1. 1

    The Call

    Presents an inciting incident where a highly respected entity initiates contact, immediately establishing the stakes and context.

  2. 2

    The Response

    Presents the protagonist's (the brand's) decisive and confident reaction, completing the narrative loop and positioning them as a capable peer.
