TEMO USA Campaign

Translating a French startup’s mission to the tides of America, with wits and cameras in tow.


Some client-agency relationships just feel meant to be. And that’s exactly how TEMO and Eastern Adventure’s felt from the very start.

TEMO is a French electric boat motor startup who’d just set up shop in our hometown of Portland, Maine. When we caught word their sole American employee was across the street in a coworking space, we reached out to see what was possible.

Within 24 hours, we were sitting in-person talking details. And within a month we were on the water capturing TEMO’s first American brand campaign. What came of it was a total success that’s launched TEMO across retailers nationwide.
