Raw beauty
Role : Director
We travelled to Melbourne, Australia to direct this spot for Mitsubishi Motors new Pajero Sport. Mitsubishi have quite a strict visual language in regards to what can be shown or how they like to see their vehicles so working within that we tried to shoot in a style that was a little more raw while still keeping sections of clean camera work to show off beautiful slow motion moments. I wanted to shoot everything a little bit faster, on longer lenses, anamorphic and introduce some shake to show the toughness of these vehicles.
