Campaign

Get Up, and Go was developed to communicate EXPAREL's role in opioid-sparing, multimodal postsurgical pain management. Grounded in a transformative brand idea, the campaign resonated strongly in focus testing for its believable depiction of recovery. Across eight patient scenarios bariatric, orthopedics, women's health, pediatrics, and general surgery the creative shows patients rising from a hospital setting into meaningful real-life moments.

Production

(02)

Live-action photography combined with CGI and post-production to create a seamless hospital-to-life transformation across all eight scenarios. Patients were shot in controlled hospital environments with attention to casting, styling, and realistic post-surgical conditions, while destination scenes were extended or fully built in CGI for consistency across homes, parks, gyms, and outdoor spaces.

Execution Challenge

(03)

The key challenge was designing a believable transition between clinical recovery and real-world activity. This was achieved through matched lighting, camera angles, and body positioning between photographed and CGI environments, with compositing and color grading unifying both worlds into one continuous visual flow.
