Go Big or Go IMAX: Lindt’s Epic 2025 Conference

July 14, 2025

CH-Video have been the proud video partner for Lindt UK for over 15 years, helping to shape their story through compelling video. From brand films and sales content to internal events we know their business and tone of voice like the back of our sticky chocolate covered hands.

The Brief


This year (2025), Lindt told us: “We’re going big for our conference – IMAX big.”  With every video set to play out on the largest screen in the UK at the science museum in London, video wasn’t just part of the day, it was the day. No pressure. 


  1. Create an epic opener to build drama and anticipation. 
  2. Tell “The Lindt Story” – an emotional journey of where they’ve been and where they’re going as a business. 
  3. Close with impact – leaving the audience inspired to shape Lindt’s next chapter.
  4. Visual Identity – create a suite of content including logos and stings.
  5. Filming & editing a wrap up of the 2 Day Conference.

Opening Film – The Alchemy of Chocolate 


A 90-second film blending science, craftsmanship and emotion, inspired by the Science Museum setting. A sweeping voiceover and dynamic visuals take viewers from atoms to truffles, culminating in a powerful call to action: 

“This is our Lindt Story– what part will you play?”

Our Lindt Story 


Told entirely through the real voices of Lindt employees, this audio-led film was brought to life with stylised, cinematic b-roll that captured the everyday beauty of Lindt and the special moments it creates. 


Over four carefully planned half-day shoots, we gathered footage that reflected the full Lindt story from head office culture and chocolate craftsmanship at the flagship Piccadilly store, to the field sales team in action within a grocery setting, and finally, real moments of joy as consumers enjoyed Lindt in a café and local park. 


This thoughtful, detail-driven approach gave us an end result that was authentic, poetic, and deeply human a film that truly resonated with the Lindt team and brought their story to life in a heartfelt and cinematic way.

 Closing Film – It’s Over to You 

A bold, 45-second visual anthem combining archive footage of Lindt teams with iconic London landmarks, featuring key conference messages superimposed across the capital. 


Set to soaring music, this no-voiceover piece ends the day on a note of empowerment and momentum.

Visual Identity & Stings


As well as developing the three hero films, we collaborated closely with the Lindt team to create a full visual identity for the event – including naming the conference ‘Creating Our Story Together’, designing the logo, and producing a bespoke animated sting that welcomed attendees on the IMAX screen as they entered.

Chapter Stings


To elevate the storytelling throughout the day, we also designed cinematic chapter headings for each of the six segments of the Lindt Story – setting the tone as the leadership team took to the stage.

Technical Experts


Our team was on-site across both days of the event, capturing the atmosphere on film and working behind the scenes to ensure every single video moment played flawlessly.

Fast turnaround videos. What we do and what our clients do to make it work. Our Managing Director, Emily Blanden, shares what we’ve learned from creating fast-turnaround videos for our clients - without the panic stations. From getting the brief nailed down early to keeping feedback clear and speedy, Emily talks through the little things that make a big difference when deadlines are tight.  My team might not thank me for writing this. We’ve just completed two motion graphics projects on extremely tight turnarounds. A three minute video briefed in and delivered within six working days. A five minute video done in four. Sharing how we did this might result in us getting even more last minute briefs, sorry in advance to my team! Short lead time work is stressful. We’d always love more time. But over the years we’ve developed a process that makes it possible to create quality work, fast and I think it’s worth sharing, because a lot of it comes down to what both sides of the relationship do along the way.

When Euronics came to us with a brief, it was a good one: take a true story about an extraordinary delivery and turn it into something worth watching. The Brief Joe, a Euronics delivery agent, had been tasked with getting a chest freezer to a customer in rural Wales. The road ran out. He carried on anyway, on foot, through fields, across rivers and over hills. The customer was delighted. The story deserved to be told. Euronics asked us to produce a short comedic video retelling that journey. The challenge was finding the right visual language to match the scale of the tale. The Concept We pitched several approaches centred on a comic-book aesthetic, bold, energetic and a little tongue-in-cheek. It felt like the right fit: a story that was equal parts heroic and absurd, told in a style that leaned into both. The concept paired real interview footage of Joe with AI-generated visuals to bring his journey to life. Where a traditional shoot would have required location days across Welsh countryside, generative AI gave us the tools to illustrate the story scene by scene. Creative Wrangling We filmed Joe against a studio blue backdrop, letting him tell the story in his own words. His delivery did a lot of the heavy lifting (puns intended!), dry, matter-of-fact and quietly brilliant. The AI-generated visuals were built around detailed multi-angle reference sheets for Joe, the Euronics van and the chest freezer.
