Curious Refuge issued a real client brief complete with brand guidelines and product photography for CulturePop Soda, a probiotic sparkling drink that pairs fruit with culinary spices. Working solo, Arthur Machado wrote the script, designed the entire production workflow and delivered a 30-second spot titled A Perfect Match, celebrating the brand’s unexpected flavour combinations.
The film earned public shout-outs from Curious Refuge organisers and CulturePop brand managers for its faithful yet imaginative take on the brief. It also became a calling card that led People’s Television to engage Arthur for the Pack4Good Sweetfella consultancy, citing the CulturePop project as proof of concept.
