Dallas/Santa Monica-based Sugar Film Production travels to the ends of the earth for the long-running H-E-B “Signs” real people campaign, most recently in Santiago, Chile for director Chris Smith’s new :30, “Chilean Wine.” As with all spots in the award-winning campaign, “Chilean Wine” goes to the source, introducing viewers to the real people, farmers and breathtaking vineyard locations behind the high quality wine offered at H-E-B. From the ranches of Texas to the Pacific Northwest to Alaska, Chile and Columbia, Sugar’s cinematic journey on “Signs” spans over five years and 20 commercials, each spot capturing a piece of the H-E-B story in a cinematic, docu-style manner.
