About this Project

Elphinstone Group needed more than a milestone film. They needed a clear, powerful way to articulate who they are — to employees, stakeholders, and future partners.

The result was a long-form brand story video designed to honour the past while setting the tone for the next chapter.

The goal wasn’t just to celebrate the past - it was to clearly articulate the business today and where it’s heading.


The challenge

Anniversary films often become timelines. Elphinstone needed something more strategic.

Elphinstone needed a film that:

• Balanced legacy with momentum Past to Present to Future

• Felt authentic to a heavy-industry audience

• Represented the broader group, not just one site or one voice

• Landed emotionally for internal viewers — while still being polished and shareable


The solution

WildAcre developed a story-led structure anchored in people, values, and defining moments - supported by cinematography from real working environments.

The approach:

  • Long-form interview-led storytelling (legacy, culture, capability, future)

  • Carefully shaped narrative arc (origins → growth → values → leadership → future)

  • Strong location-based B-roll to keep it visually moving and grounded in reality

  • A premium finish (music, pacing, sound design, titles) worthy of a milestone moment

While many brand story videos sit around 3-5 minutes, this long-form edition was intentionally crafted to serve as a comprehensive internal legacy piece.


The impact

The film premiered as part of Elphinstone’s 50-year celebrations and now serves as a cornerstone internal asset — a piece the business can continue to use to:

  • Welcome new team members into the story

  • Reinforce culture and values across a growing organisation

  • Give stakeholders a clear sense of who Elphinstone is and what it stands for

The film now serves as the primary introduction to the business - replacing lengthy slide decks and streamlining executive-level stakeholder conversations.
