2019

Photography, Art Direction

OpenTable approached OTHER Studio to direct a collection of inspiring imagery for their new series of restaurant categories. The photographic art direction provided moments of delight and defined a unique visual experience, separating OpenTable from competitor's.

OTHER studio concepted, art directed, produced, shot, and retouched 30+ photos helping define this vibrant and distinct direction for OpenTable photographic art style.

Restaurant Categories ↑

The introduction of these restaurant categories allowed for a new type of discovery on Opentable.com. Audiences could easily find a curated list of the best bars in a city or most romantic spots for a date. OTHER's approach to create concept forward image supported a wide variety of restaurant categories and scenes.
