Fancy Commercials Still Appreciated

Maybe its our jaded eye or maybe its the plethora of Hollywood movies, with their stunning photography and seemingly impossible camera/post-production trickery that has dulled our senses when it comes to getting excited about beautifully shot commercials but this new campaign for Lexus from Team One and shot by Francois Vogel is, well, beautiful. The camera work is great. The effects are fun to watch. And, thankfully, the car is featured. Vogel was the guy who shot the HP campaign in which much camera trickery and digital manipulation gave us those amazing images of people pulling picture frames off their head which turned into actual photos. See the campaign here.

Research suggests the people who make others light up when they first meet them aren’t more charming than everyone else — they’re more curious, and curiosity turns out to be the most flattering thing one person can offer another because it says your existence is interesting, which is the thing almost everyone is waiting to hear and almost no one says
