Morning launch reel

A sunrise unboxing for Sunday Bloom's new serum — filmed in one morning, edited the same night, and live before the launch email even landed.

Sunday Bloom

Overview

Launch day needed a face, not a banner.

Sunday Bloom was dropping its hero serum with a full paid plan — but nothing from a real routine. My job was to give the launch a human morning: sleepy light, first pump, honest texture shots, and a verdict by the end of the day.

Challenge

Twelve hours, zero reshoots.

The product arrived the night before launch. I scripted three hooks at midnight, filmed at sunrise for the light the brief asked for, and delivered the final cut by 6pm — with captions, cover frame, and two alternate hooks for Spark Ads.

Approach

Built like a morning, paced like a trailer.

Hook in 1 second

Opened on the pump shot with on-screen text: "The serum that sold out in presale." No intro, no greeting.

Proof, not promises

Texture close-ups and a side-by-side glow check replaced every adjective in the brief.

Soft CTA

Ended mid-routine with "linked before it sells out again" — comments did the selling after that.
