This surreal commercial for the Czech Republic beer, Budweiser Budvar, features one of the most distinguished actors in the country, Jan Triska. His bold and powerful presence is an example of Budvar’s much celebrated principle of taking a stand and saying “No!” Directed by André Stringer, this spot is a poetic visualization of work by the Czech-America filmmaker Milos Forman.

What would the world look like if we could all make a piece of it? Well your about to find out…. The future according to Zazzle.com

“ The punch line: we believe in a future where you can finally get exactly what you want… and make anything your own. The best part? Customization helps make our planet a cleaner place. It enables local manufacturing to thrive, which lessens shipping pollution and reduces landfills — both rampant problems in the prevailing economy of mass production overseas.”

Guinness Journey.

Featuring the slam skills of poetic performer Ainsley Burrows, this spot presents a powerfully narrated first-person story of one man’s journey to greatness. We shot the film on location in a stark New Jersey warehouse. We felt pretty strongly that featuring Ainsley in this type of space would bring in some important texture, personality and grit — and also that it provided an interesting visual metaphor for the “theater of his mind.” We then integrated flourishing elements to illustrate the poem’s narrative. At first appearing as a flowing atmospheric trail following the artist, shapes organically materialize, symbolizing many different images of time, travel, growth, freedom and more. Ultimately this spot is all about poetry and an abstract feeling and we worked to turn the realism of the shots into a spiritually heightened visual experience.

Jose gets “smart” with this five-spot campaign for BBDO Berlin. For our very first co-production with our friends at Film Deluxe, we are very proud to showcase the work of Shilo co-founder and director Jose Gomez for BBDO Berlin and the phenomenal smart vehicles from Daimler AG. Over the past several months, Jose has directed five spots for the smart campaign. The “A Big Idea” campaign ads from BBDO Berlin creative director Ton Hollander and his colleagues focus on the new smart fortwo vehicle that recently arrived at smart center dealerships worldwide. Each spot presents an important quandary many people face, and uses clever copy to position the smart fortwo as the ideal solution. To interest a wide range of viewers within the narratives, the spots’ simple style features engaging animated characters coming to life on live-action city walls. At the end of each one, the location-based stop-motion background cinematography finds a smart fortwo.

MetLife Jungle.

Capturing the energy and attitude of MetLife, and further more family, is at the root of our thinking. MetLife is entrenched in creating a feeling of easy going security for its customers and it’s that intangible feeling that inspired our storytelling style. We used an illustrated cinematic style to tell the story where Snoopy and Woodstock, the supporting cast of characters, and the dynamic action and camera work all coalesce to become a piece of communication that matches MetLife’s qualities in this beautiful ride down the jungle river.

Lucozade

We love working all around the world. Our friends at Ogilvy & Mather Ireland reached out to us to help tell an “energetic” story about their product Lucozade Alert. With the help of this drink, confusion becomes clarity and the message of the spot has to do with the attainment of order from chaos. We wanted to make it clear that this is an intellectual stimulator, a “smart juice” if you will. and not just another energy drink. We hope this bombastic thrill ride does the trick.
