I love advertising. Every once and a while, a brand comes along and does work that leaves you inspiried, passionate and hopeful that more brands will do the same. But few do.
Let's be honest. It is hard to do great work. It's hard to sell a concept through that doesn't scream about the product. It's hard to sell an idea that doesn't get ripped to shreds by the dozens of people (internal and client) that is has to get by.
But those teams that are focused and driven on creating work usually do. Sure, they might argue with their clients, ruffel some feathers and maybe even get fired. But eventually, a brand is going to find them and they are going to do something great.
That brings me to this spot from Virgin Media:
Great concept, direction, editing and music. Great work, all around.
Thanks to Mac for the link.
