our department thought our internal teams would handle this sort of thing - but after our discovery call, the penny dropped as to why we don't....

..I didn't think it was going to work for our brand, as I couldn't see a Japanese commercial anywhere - once it was explained that each commercial is created to our target customer, it all made sense.

The commercial brought roughly an extra £9,000 in the first month...

This commercial was created for Cranside Kitchen as a social-first campaign built around speed, convenience, and proximity to OVO Hydro. The objective was simple: capture pre-event energy and show how seamlessly Cranside Kitchen fits into a night out.

The film leans into handheld movement and rapid pacing, mirroring the anticipation of heading to a concert. A younger cast anchors the narrative, reinforcing accessibility and relevance, while RGB lighting and bold colour accents give the visuals a modern, digital edge.

A key focus of the commercial is the restaurant’s app-based ordering system. Rather than traditional table service, the film demonstrates how quickly guests can order through their phone, removing friction and aligning the brand with the habits of a mobile-first audience. These moments are intercut with food, atmosphere, and movement to keep momentum high throughout.

Designed primarily for social media distribution, the commercial acts as both a brand statement and a functional explainer, showing not just where Cranside Kitchen is, but how it works. Executed end-to-end by CommercialsGroup, the result is a confident, energetic piece that positions the venue as a natural extension of the event-going experience.

Eat fast, move easy - the night doesn’t wait.
