Service
Brand events, fashion shows and launch campaigns
Launching a product, opening a venue or showing a new clothing collection? Businesses and brands hire ViCES Studio to plan and produce the event or campaign. We call these branded experiences: occasions where people meet, try or see your brand in action. Your brief can include event organisation, model and influencer bookings, campaign shoots, invitations, PR kits, merchandise and event coverage. This is a paid service, with the scope agreed for your project.
How we approach it
Launches fail on coordination more often than on ideas. The invitation, the box the product arrives in, what staff wear on the night, the signage on the wall and the film that comes out afterwards all speak for the same brand, and they have to land on the same date. Sequencing long-lead production against a fixed event date is most of the job.
The studio also brings its own platforms into campaigns where they fit: the ViCES & Co. media team for campaign film, AI-assisted video and animation, ViCES Swim Week for runway, event and model or influencer talent, and Pretty Pace Walk Club Toronto for community sampling and activation in Toronto.

Questions
Events & brand campaigns: common questions
- What is a branded experience?
- An event or campaign where people meet, try or see your brand in action. Examples include a product launch, a venue opening, a fashion show, a campaign shoot or a product sampling event. You hire ViCES Studio to plan and produce the agreed elements as a paid service.
- What does a launch campaign include?
- Typically invitations, packaging and gifting, uniforms, merchandise and signage produced to the event date, plus event execution on the day and campaign film or content afterwards.
- Do you run the event as well as produce the items?
- Yes. Run of show, on-site build, staffing and handover are part of the program, so the objects and the room are managed by the same team.
- Can you provide models and influencers?
- Yes. Promotional models and influencer casting come through the ViCES Swim Week talent network, and community activation in Toronto runs through Pretty Pace Walk Club.
- Can you produce campaign film and video?
- Yes. Live-action shoots, product film, AI-assisted video and animation are produced through the ViCES & Co. media team and can be briefed alongside the physical program.
- How early should a launch be briefed?
- Most production runs four to eight weeks from approved design, so briefing two to three months before the event date leaves room for sampling and revisions on long-lead items.
