The Setup

In a world where back-to-school campaigns often lean into shiny new supplies and upbeat jingles, Hasta Basta took a different route — one rooted in purpose. With an initiative that repurposed hoarding waste into functional school bags for underprivileged children, the brand already had a powerful act in place. What it needed now was a voice. A story. A film that could match the heart of the idea with the right emotional pitch.

The Problem

How do you make purpose-driven action feel personal and powerful? The idea was meaningful — but it needed to connect at scale. Our job was to shape a story that wasn’t just informative but emotionally sticky, something that stayed with viewers long after the film ended.

Our POV

We saw this not as a campaign, but a moment to reflect the joy and pride of children heading back to school — some for the first time. We decided to let the kids lead the narrative, both visually and musically. A specially composed song — “Hasta Basta” — became the heartbeat of the film, celebrating the spirit of new beginnings and the freedom that education brings. The tone? Hopeful. Real. Grounded in truth — and built to uplift.

The Execution

Crafted a campaign film that spotlighted children as the face of change. Developed an original track, “Hasta Basta,” that brought warmth, energy, and rhythm to the message. Used a documentary-style lens with emotional storytelling. Designed to resonate across digital channels and create meaningful engagement.
