Dear Kai Johan Jiang,
I would like to be part of your team that helps to make Saab cars the best cars in the world.
I have extensive experience with Saab cars as I have owned three in the past 12 years. I have nearly 30 years experience as a professional photographer and have worked extensively in Wales, UK. Last year I decided to relocate to Germany where I am now based as a photographer and filmmaker. I currently have extensive followers on Twitter and Youtube with 1.2M impressions per month and 80,000 views per month. The power of social media is quite something !
I will make no secret of it, I absolutely love Saab cars. It's a passion. It's quite incredibly the amount of people who take notice of the Saab 95 that I drive in Germany - people everyday want to chat about the car. They too like Saab but almost everyone thinks that Saab has finished. This however is a great, great shame and I would like to do something about it.
With my extensive social media experience and professional photography/filming skills I would like to create a series of short films with a dedicated Youtube + Twitter channel about the new Saab 93 Sedan EV.
My vision is to photograph and film the Saab 93 Sedan EV at the most spectacular locations possible in each of the 28 EU countries. Making short but stunningly inspiring videos which show off and promote the Saab 93 Sedan EV to the world utilising the power of social media.
To do this I would use the latest technology to create stunning 'mini' films that would promote the Saab brand to the highest level and make an already iconic car brand a cult hit.
Below is an example of exactly the sort of shot I would love to create with the Saab 93 Sedan EV - being inspired by classic movies but making something very contemporary that appeals to Saab fans young and old.
By choosing some of the most spectacular scenery and cities in european countries I believe that it's possible to create something quite special, something that has not been done before with a car brand.
This is just a general outline of my vision as I wanted to see if you are interested and if it's something we could work together on and I would be more than happy to send you further details of how I think this could be done.
I really would like to know what you think.
Kind regards,
Mark
