Objective

To create a cinematic food videography campaign that highlights Lau Wang Claypot’s handmade cooking process, signature dishes, and authentic claypot experience, tailored for social media, website, and in-store digital displays.

  2. Claypot Cooking at the Outlet – Each dish is freshly cooked in traditional claypots for maximum aroma and authenticity

  3. Signature Dish Highlights – Showcasing sizzling Sesame Oil Chicken, bubbling Seafood Soup, fiery Sambal Claypot, and golden Fried Sides

  4. Customer POV – Shots of dishes being served steaming hot, capturing the sizzle, aroma, and vibrant flavors
