The feeling of The Metropolitan London, before anyone checks in.

COMO needed film of The Metropolitan London that felt like COMO: calm, unhurried and lit by the day itself.

Their library had gaps, with Hyde Park and the streets around the hotel among them, and the footage had to work across every channel the brand uses.

Two days, planned hour by hour around the light. The facade at golden hour and the lobby at its emptiest. COMO Shambhala in the afternoon. The Park Suite as the light warmed towards evening. Then out into Hyde Park and the Mayfair mews the next morning.

Natural light throughout, with nothing added unless a room truly needed it. Every set-up was filmed with and without guests, so the library keeps its value whatever the campaign.

A graded footage library the COMO team draws on across its channels, filling the gaps it had around the hotel and the park.

From the same shoot, a hero film for The Metropolitan London.
