DESCRIPTION//
Challenged with the question: Can an electric car tow a wakeboarder? Absolutely! It required meticulous planning. Thanks to our incredible friends at Wake Union, we conquered an active quarry in Bavaria. Despite freezing temperatures, wakeboard world champion Sanne Mejer delivered an awe-inspiring performance!

PROJECT TITLE//HERO FILM
DIRECTOR//YURI O.

DESCRIPTION//
Foodpanda is the world’s largest food delivery service. Allthough the company is owned by Berlin based Delivery Hero the main markets of operation are in Asia. Instant Waves had the honor of producing the first campaign for the German market.
In five separate portraits we followed influencers through their day and learned why they love ordering stuff through Foodpanda. Actually we got some pretty good answers!
Unfortunately the service was closed down again, but we hope it was not due to our videos 😉

With just ten days of prep this project was a really fast one. Director Yuri O. pretty much prepped and wrote the scripts within a week. While scoutin locations on a bike. During a 38°C summer heatwave.

PROJECT TITLE//WHAT DRIVES HEROES
DIRECTOR//FREDERICK GOMOLL

DESCRIPTION//
Shooting with firefighters is always fun. But they really came in handy once “someone” flew their drone into a tree… Seriously, these were some of the hottest days on record in Germany. Spending them on a race track made was one hell of a hot experience. To our surprise the firefighters of Walldorf stayed cool and hardly broke a sweat.
