MÄRKLIN "FATHER AND SON" - CHRISTMAS CAMPAIGN 2026

A story about sharing what you love

Some passions stay with us for a lifetime. And sometimes, the greatest joy is passing them on to the next generation. For Märklin’s 2026 Christmas campaign, we developed the concept and produced a heartwarming film about a father, his son, and the excitement of sharing something you've loved since childhood. A story about anticipation, connection, and the little moments that turn into lasting memories. The film was shot on location in Berlin, combining traditional live-action filmmaking with subtle AI enhancements in post-production. A hybrid approach that allowed us to bring a little extra Christmas magic to the screen while keeping the story and its emotions authentic.

A big thank you to the Märklin team for their trust and wonderful collaboration, and to our fantastic crew for bringing this story to life.
