The art of filmmaking applies naturally to branded content. It’s marketing as small-scale cinema that drives the audience to engage emotionally. Process launched its branded content division with this in mind, starting with a short film for Audi starring Claire Danes, which received 3.2 million web hits in its first eight days. It was also adapted into a 2-minute television version that aired nationally during the 2013 Emmy Awards, as well as 15- and 30-second promos.
