Overview

Ootien sells gluten-free, organic baked goods online. Rather than walk through an app, the film tells ordering as a small story: a man gets hungry at home, orders from ootien.com on his phone, a chef prepares the order, a rider sets off from the shop, a map traces the route, and the box arrives at his door. It closes on the Ootien gluten-free badge – the same mark shown in our logo collection.

Approach

How it was designed

  1. 01

    The story follows the customer, not the product – each step of ordering is something he does, so the film explains the service without a single interface screen.

  2. 02

    The shopfront wears the brand's green and red, so Ootien is recognisable in the street scenes before the logo ever appears.

  3. 03

    The web address appears twice – in a speech bubble as he orders and on the shop sign – repeating the one thing a viewer needs to remember.

  4. 04

    Simple characters with clear, readable poses keep the film light enough for social feeds and short enough to watch to the end.
