we found the story inside the company.
The people who make the brand, and the place that made it possible.
“I have been thoroughly impressed with Fish Tank Creative’s professionalism, creativity, and passion to authentically help to lift brands through a variety of services."
Jason Walter - Senior Brand Director, Waiākea
creative Direction + production
Waiākea had a mission and roots in Hilo. The story was already there. It just hadn't been told.
So we built it from the inside — the people who make the brand, and the town that makes it possible. Cast entirely from Hilo, shot with a kama'āina crew.
Alongside the brand film we produced a full suite of social assets for Waiākea's in-house ad team, plus creator content with brand ambassadors Kalei Mau and Nique Miller.
Brand work and performance work from the same shop, in the same voice.
