    At Advanced Drainage Systems, we have the unique challenge of marketing the invisible. Our products are found underground, and they work to capture, convey, store and treat water, the world’s most precious resource. This is why animation has been heavily utilized by the company, to show water flowing through products underground. But while effective, it didn’t really capture the true story of what stormwater management solutions provide to people, which is quality of life. That is why, for the first time ever, we shot video of our products in use so you can see how our products manage the lifecycle of a raindrop, ensuring communities are able to thrive. We cut the products and places cameras in them, following a single leaf’s journey through our products and showing what it truly means when stormwater properly.
