Produce a short video that highlights Chameleon Cold-Brew's activation at the ChefDance culinary extravaganza during the Sundance Film Festival, specifically featuring Chameleon's cold-brew on tap.

Chameleon Cold-Brew is sponsoring in this year's ChefDance, where the brand will have a dedicated activation space to highlight its growing coffee portfolio and drive overall brand awareness. It will be the destination for coffee during the event and a space where attendees can relax with a delicious cup of coffee, engage with the brand, and learn more about Chameleon Cold-Brew's commitment to sourcing sustainably.

The goal of this project is to capture footage of the event and then edit it together to create a dynamic and energizing sizzle video that showcases their cold-brew on tap. This video will be used to introduce the Chameleon Cold-Brew brand to new accounts within the foodservice space and will be used as a selling tool.
