Bizarre Nissan Ad Shows Promise for Agency Newbie

nissan_out.jpg

Ads involving carriages in a desperate race against crocodiles, tigers, spherical killer rocks and Satan always make for promising fare, which is why Oregon Trail was so popular, and which is also why this Nissan ad by Curt Detweiler via TBWAChiatDay is so awesome.

Curt’s new to LA having just come from TBWA Paris and this work suggests he merits some watching – for slapstick entertainment value if nothing else. And by the way, that image at left has little to do with the video but lots to do with QuickTime being douchey. It is, however, part of the TBWA Nissan campaign. Try not to get confused. – Contributed by Angela Natividad
