Strong concept and note-perfect execution led by Academy director Ian Pons Jewell elevate this spot for Virgin Media above the Telco rabble with post/VFX by London’s Time Based Arts and CG branding by C A T K in Berlin.
Cilesta Van Doorn, director of brand and marketing at Virgin Media: “Our new creative platform draws upon our ‘Virginness’ in an irreverent and rebellious way, bringing the feeling of unlimiting to life. This is the first step on our journey to become the most irresistible brand in our market – and out of it.”
