Concept and strategy
UPPL developed Winter Diaries, a 360 content-driven concept composed of an original video and editorial series produced for distribution across media streams. Our approach was to bring cultural relevance to the brand by exploring the intimate relationship between creative talent and the winter season.
Video Production
We produced two seasons of a docu-style series, showcasing Canadian personalities in the fields of music, food, design, as well as TV, film and entertainment -- and exploring their intimate relationship with winter. A bilingual production, subtitles and translation ensured we cross language barriers on social media platforms, and reach a wider joint audience.
“I highly recommend UPPL – my professional revelation of 2018.”
- Francis Guidon,
Director of Global Communications and Marketing,
Quartz Co.

Editorial
UPPL delivered written articles as well as photography for Quartz’s website. From Toronto, to Montreal and Japan, we produced interview style articles to increase Quartz’s digital discoverability across geographic points of sale.
