The Ridge at Manitou golf course under a blue sky with fluffy clouds, featuring a well-maintained green, surrounded by sand traps and dense greenery, conveying tranquility.

The Challenge

The Ridge at Manitou wanted video content that showcased the scenic layout, course character, and overall golf experience, while staying authentic to golf culture and engaging for modern social platforms.

The goal was to capture content that felt immersive and true to the golfer’s experience — highlighting what makes the course unique without feeling staged or promotional.

The Strategy

We focused on experience-first golf storytelling, capturing real play and natural moments throughout the round. The creative direction emphasized:

  • Scenic course visuals and elevation
  • Natural golf action and reactions
  • Lifestyle moments between shots and holes
  • Social-first pacing designed for short-form platforms

The content was designed to make viewers feel like they were playing the course themselves.

The rustic Ridge at Manitou lodge with wooden beams is surrounded by lush trees under a blue sky. A stone bridge crosses a tranquil pond in the foreground.
