BBH tells the tale of “The Man Who Walked Around The World”
Looks like today is a day for ads that run longer than 30 or 60 seconds.
The gang at Adfreaks brought our attention to a five and a half minute long epic by BBH London for Johnnie Walker Scotch Whisky. Entitled “The Man Who Walked Around The World“, the online movie features acclaimed Scottish actor Robert Carlyle, regaling the history of Johnnie Walker, the man and the brand. The entire video is one beautiful shot that follows Robert as he walks through the haunting Scottish highlands.
In a world where people barely have a moment for a 30 second TV spot, it is amazing to see how something so incredibly crafted can hold your attention for such a long time.
