PLANNING AHEAD:
THREE SHOOTS IN THREE DAYS IN NYC:
The Importance of Planning & Strategizing
CONTENT CREATION - SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGEMENT
[ THE BRIEF ]
Over the course of three consecutive days in New York City, The Digital Diary executed a high-intensity, multi-brand content production across three distinct industries: hospitality, wellness, and fine jewellery. Each brand required a completely unique narrative, aesthetic, and strategy, while maintaining a cohesive level of luxury, storytelling, and execution.
From café culture in Dumbo, Brooklyn, to a wellness, Medical Aesthetic Spa launch in Tribeca, to fine jewellery storytelling across iconic NYC locations, this case study highlights how strategic planning, creative direction, and operational precision allowed us to deliver three months’ worth of premium content, without compromise.
