Cut + Run Editor Andy McGraw recently completed a global spot for Audi through BBH London which is currently airing in the UK and will soon launch in the US. Directed by the ever- innovative Paul Hunter, the commercial is a stylized, choreographed merging of man and machine and the embodiment of human engineering.
Cut to a rhythmic track that includes actual Audi RS6 sounds recorded at a racetrack, "Gymnasts," features a cadre of gymnasts twisting, twirling and moving with precision. It is homage to the RS6's powerful engineering that demands "performance from every part."
"It was an honor to cut for Paul Hunter and an exciting project for many reasons, "says editor McGraw. "It required a combination of cutting to music and accurate comping of multiple layers to get exact timings. It's a great example of how all of the production and post elements come together with powerful effect."
Art Directors trying to do the eighties look take note: this is it.
What a bathroom! At first, the checkerboard squares are black and white, then after the shave is complete, they turn red and white - but they're still black & white in the mirror. BUT WAIT! There's another mirror AND sink. And the squares are green and white in that mirror.
No toilet or tub to be seen. The room shown is almost as big as my bedroom.
