Audi TT - You dare or You don't / Bomb robot - (2014) :45 (France)

This campaign created Fred & Farid Paris agency, plays with the codes of big Hollywood films. The police are surrounding the area, there's something inside, a bomb robot is sent to check it out....

“The tension and the energy of the film became the height of emotion that brings this iconic model. This film is only a pretext of the staging for the aim of enhancing the beauty, the power and the design of the new Audi TT.”

said Benjamin Marchal and Olivier Lefebvre – Creative Directors at Fred & Farid Paris

Ben and Olivier entrusted the production to the film duo, Fleur & Manu, the new generation of French directors “clippeurs”. Beginning their career with producing videos, Fleur & Manu worked with Sébastien Tellier, Tricky, Phoenix, Etienne de Crécy and M83. Today their work is totally devoted to the production of advertising films, with 2 Cannes Lions, several Clio Awards and 2 Yellow Pencils at D&AD Awards. “In order to create the emotion, we wanted directors with a strong vision in the artistic direction. In the manner of their last video for the artist Gesaffelstein, Fleur & Manu are perpetually in the research of putting the emotion on the stage.” Ben and Olivier – Creative Directors at Fred & Farid Paris. Filmed in Barcelona, the video is completely made with an Alexa for a natural image, highly stylish and modern, and at the same time glorifying the body and the look of the new Audi TT.

For the music, Ben and Oliver called on Saycet (studio sound artist & sound design by Capitaine Plouf); the French electro artist made an organic sound track, which brings the whole film’s sphere out in order to create a dramatic tension that grows until the moment of revelation.
The campaign “You Dare or You Don’t” Audi TT will be broadcasted on television and in cinemas from November 16th in France (30 and 45 seconds).
