Close-Up toothpaste, the main competitor to Colgate, is known for their concerts, and the “Summer Solstice” campaign was to promote their huge “sunset to sunrise” concert series at the Mall of Asia Concert Grounds. It stars the breakthrough stars Coleen Garcia, Enrique Gil, and racer Matteo Guidicelli. This shoot was fun because they had to mount a fake concert.
For this, Marie got to reunite with award-winning cinematographer Odyssey Flores (Brillante Mendoza’s DP) — a long time collaborator since 2000. They worked on over half of Marie’s 40+ music videos.
