Gabriela Gardini & Alejandra Martínez, Morning Coffee

Morning Coffee’s Art Director Alejandra Martinez (left) and Creative Director Gabriela Gardini (right) brought new perspectives to one of Spain’s most passionate art forms. Their massive Amazon Music campaign The Enchantment Transcends celebrates Flamenco artist Ángeles Toledano. Explore how they merged Toledano’s music with her own distinctive visual art in a single-day shoot that earned Morning Coffee two 2025 Communicator Awards of Excellence for Integrated & Multi-Channel Campaigns: Arts & Entertainment and Social Content Series: Arts, Culture & Entertainment.

How big was the crew? Did you stick with the people you work with often or did you cast a wider net?
GG – For this project, we had to scale up the core team — from about 10 to at least 25 people. It took a massive on-set effort to stay on schedule and achieve the beauty-driven, artistic tone we were aiming for. Morning Coffee already works with loads of specialists (interviewers, props, editors, choreographers, on top of the usual roles), but we also called in our top external collaborators and asked them to bring in their own dream team: people fully committed to creating an artistic piece in a short time and under very particular conditions.

Did you have a “this is it” moment when you knew you’d captured exactly what you were looking for?
GG– There was a moment when we were finally ready to shoot. Ángeles was in position, standing in the middle of the Museum’s huge gallery. The place was closed — it was just us. And suddenly she started singing the Amazon Music Original a cappella, and her voice filled every corner of the room. It was hypnotic. I’d imagined that moment a thousand times, I knew it was going to happen, and still, seeing it live was incredibly moving. That’s when I knew it was going to look beautiful — that it would go beyond the screen.
