Origin

The brief

Record the foundation pour of Rise, the tallest tower in Latin America. A project of rarely seen magnitude: hundreds of people, coordinated avenues and hundreds of concrete trucks working as one body.

II

Mandate

The approach

A project like this is not recreated, it is recorded. We proposed an on-site documentary: filming the entire process, without stopping, from start to finish.

III

Forge

The shoot

Nearly three days of continuous shooting inside the site, among steel and concrete. A high-risk shoot: the crew worked in safety harnesses and took a training course before going in.

IV

Final Cut

The piece lives on NEST’s social channels and in its showroom, where the story of the tower’s foundation is told to every visitor.
