Created by Grey London, this ad for the Sunday Times of London newspaper’s new Arts Culture Section focuses on icons from the worlds of fine art and television, cinema and music.
Shot in one take (as proved by the nice “making of” video linked below), Chris Barrett and Luke Taylor of production house of Us London created a wonderfully fluid celebration of an array of cultural cornerstones, each represented by simple but iconic single visuals. And yep, Rodin’s The Thinker really does transform into Forrest Gump and so on.
