Background:

Maurice Paul Guitars (MPG) is an independent guitar workshop based in Pokhara, Nepal. These hand crafted instruments showcase incredible detail and craftsmanship, whilst providing opportunities for orphaned adolescents.

Engagement:

Corey was approached by MPG to create a stronger brand awareness, communicated across a range of digital mediums. Traveling to Nepal to visit the workshop firsthand, Corey formed a strong relationship with the luthiers to establish a deep product knowledge and further understand the organisation.

Documentary:

As part of this visit, Corey interviewed the team and produced a short documentary conveying the opportunities MPG had afforded the young luthiers. This outcome also served as a marketing product for the organisation – communicating not only the heart and generosity of Maurice Paul Guitars – but also the brand’s passion and craftmanship.

Website Launch & Brand Marketing:

Upon further understanding the brand, Corey worked closely with MPG in designing a revised website and a social media strategy. Complimented by updated marketing material captured as part of the Nepalese visit, this solution conveyed the passion and generosity behind Maurice Paul Guitars.
