Content Considerations
We’ve included the following guidelines to help ensure you’re able to capture high-quality content that aligns with the Porsche brand and standards. We encourage you to consider the following:
- The official pronunciation for Porsche is “Por-scha” and not “Por-sche”, because of its German origin. It’s extremely important for the creator to pronounce it correctly at all times in video content (example here).
- Abide by federal and provincial driving/road laws. No illegal parking or driving.
- Follow all safety guidelines and protocols in place.
- Showcase the car’s capabilities.
- Include as much of the car as possible in each shot when flming/shooting the exterior.
- Ensure the vehicle is brightly lit, but not over exposed.
Additionally, these are some things to avoid in order to ensure that your content aligns with the Porsche corporate identity. When shooting, avoid:
- Sitting or standing on top of the car.
- Holding the camera and filming video while driving the vehicle.
- Filming yourself eating or drinking while driving the vehicle.
- Cursing or using language that doesn’t align with the Porsche brand.
- Highlighting other brands in footage/images.
