The solution

To do this, the agency had to rethink every single production detail from scratch and find green innovative ways to address every touchpoints.

Plane transportation, use of actors, postproduction or digital retouching were banned.
The agency took special care to control the origins and compositions of all devices, built some of them when needed, reused old techniques to shoot prints and films, and invented new ones on the Internet and social networks.
