'Jenny Takes the Mic'

We reunited with Jenny to extend Okta’s “It’s Possible” campaign, bringing a fresh wave of energy to the world of secure identity. Designed to show that strong security doesn’t mean sacrificing speed or simplicity, the spot follows Jenny as she guides a skeptical tech lead through a fast-paced tour of experiences. We leaned into striking transitions, colorful lighting, and unexpected environments to create a vibrant visual language that compliments the brand’s personality. From concept to final cut, we worked closely with our partners at Okta to evolve the tone and storytelling to deliver a campaign that is stunning and full of character.

We teamed up with Okta from day one, building a bold narrative that fuses their “no compromises” message with a wild ride of fast-paced storytelling and visual momentum.

“To keep the energy high and the storytelling tight, we planned seamless transitions that let us leap from scene to scene quickly while maintaining a clear throughline.”

PROCESS

We wanted environments that felt larger than life, so we turned to a massive virtual production setup with an LED wall 60 feet wide and 20 feet tall. With a resolution nearly five times sharper than 4K, our virtual production stage became an immersive portal to vibrant environments.
