Tallow Coffee Roasters

Tallow Coffee Roasters

A two-minute film shot in one day at the roastery.

A small roaster selling to cafes wanted a film that showed the roasting, not the logo. One day on the floor, one interview, three vertical cuts.

Odile roasts six days a week and did not want to stop for a crew. We shot around the roaster from 6 AM and did the interview in the cupping room at noon.

The film runs two minutes on their site and in two cafes that carry the beans. The three verticals went to wholesale buyers by email.

In the quarter after it went up, wholesale inquiries rose 31%.
