Nissan
Bicoastal creative production company Stardust Studios recently delivered the third spot in a high-profile broadcast campaign for the Nissan Murano and TBWA\Chiat\Day Los Angeles. Directed by Stardust’s owner and executive creative director Jake Banks, the first spot entitled “Soar†broke in Dec., “Glide†debuted just before Super Bowl XL and aired during ABC’s Super Bowl Halftime Show, and the third spot – entitled “Fly†– began airing nationally this week. Stardust also provided design, live-action production, animation, editorial and visual effects for the campaign.
Each of the spots uses a stylized approach to showcase how smoothly the Murano’s Xtronic continuously variable transmission (CVT) operates, featuring the vehicle inside of an animated world transforming into a bird in “Soarâ€, a manta ray in “Glide†and a paper airplane in “Fly.â€
Agency: TBWA\Chiat\Day, Los Angeles.
Production Studio: Stardust.

The production is great. I like that the idea is just to show smoothness in a kind of sexy way.
It is a little funny to me that the tag is SHIFT_smoothUV, what with a CVT being a shift-less automatic, hence the smoothness…

I have an idea for a television ad campaign that will blow “zoom-zoom” out of the water. Look if a fat man from the midwest can eat subway sandwiches and lose weight and get a national ad campaign out of it some one could listen to me. The problem is I do not know who to talk with about this idea. It is an idea the can run nation wide and there ideas I have that can run on local tv throught the country. We have a CD with a story board and also a copy right with it.I feel that these ideas for a television commerical would be worth presenting to some one. If I’m a crack-pot you will be able to tell within a few seconds of talking to me. For right now what will it cost you? Maybe a little time and that’s it.
