Le Sens Propre’ Interprets ‘Brilliant’ with a Fine Hand

Wed the dreamy, slightly disengaged world of Rene Magritte to the youthful warped whimsy of Alice in Wonderland. Add a dash of Little Minx for contemporary production flair and a touch of the feminine. Shake well and lace in cotton candy.

What do you get? “Le Sens Propre,” a short film by Blacklist’s Cisma for Adobe’s “Shortcut to Brilliant” Creative Suite 4 campaign. The work — created using only Adobe products — emits a strange fragility that guides wandering eyes from frame to frame on the thinnest of wispy white threads.


Agency: Goodby, Silverstein & Partners. See production Q&A and beautiful behind-the-scenes stills here.
