Chinese translations & vertical format
To maximise the reach of each film, we produced versions in 9:16 for mobile viewing, ensuring they are optimised for handheld devices and the platforms where that format performs best.
We also translated the videos into Chinese, delivering the same content with the same quality for Pictet's audiences in global markets.
