Great Job, but it was mostly using the same Story and style of nuit blanche. i think a bit of more change could make this another Amazing New Video... but Again Great job ... i think this is Really Great ..
Matthew Helms 4 months ago

Awesome! However this is Nuit Blanche 2, I would love the effect of the 3D and I think the story worked well with the ad. Just remember that Nuit Blanche has such a powerful personal connection with people. I'd hate to see this ad ruin it for those people, including myself. But I understand the process, just wish they weren't so good!!! haha
Ricardo Uribe 4 months ago

Agreed! Love the commercial but is not cheat to copy your own material!? it is to close to Nuit Blanche!
milkandblue 4 months ago

Agreed! It looks nice, but it doesn't have the same feeling that Nuit Blanche gives..
Michael Jones 4 months ago

but isn't it great we get to see them re-visit this same idea and express it in a new piece...I prefer the first personally, but it's cool they got to re-explore this idea and give us another beauty

I'll join the chorus and say I'm a bit sad that we didn't get to see Arev try something new thematically. But it is quite lovely all the same.

Also I'm glad that instead of hiring somebody to rip off a viral hit in an ad, Sony actually got Spy and Arev to do it themselves. Kudos to everyone involved.

I like the narration, and the effect in the ground . It's very impressive, but is more lovely the "Noir blanche"

So cool that you've got a Leonard Cohen poem in there. We blogged about this film in our latest edition of Cool Internet Stuff.

good idea, unfortunately not yours … why is this copied by nuit blanch sooo much?

Its a shame such powerful visuals are slightly spoiled by the direct copy of someone else's story.
Jacob Plumridge 4 months ago

its not someone else's story. They were approached (spy films) to recreate Nuit blanche
Oskar Kirk Hansen 4 months ago

great, but an absolutely shameless copy of nuit blache
David Betteridge 4 months ago

Kind of preferred the original which was truly groundbreaking but then you didn't have 20 agency bods sitting on your head pointing at things, farting opinions in your ear. At least they had the good grace to come to the same people as made the first one rather than shamelessly ripping it off and looking the other way. Looking forward to seeing what's next.

Mar Quintana 4 months ago

Is that all creatives make beautiful shortfilms hoping a big company buy the idea to make an advertising??
Same happens with "Kurz und Schön" (vimeo.com/16614879) and the Mitsubishi ASX TVC ad (youtube.com/watch?v=JsEg_NtbuME)
Sure most people don't know these sources, but for us, Vimeo fanatics, it's a bit disappointing. But good for you if you get paid.
Roman Ruetten 4 months ago

totally agree !
Roman Ruetten 4 months ago

Like it a lot. But I still prefer Nuit blanche. It had this fantastic atmosphere together with music. Which makes me cry every time I watch it. Anyways you did a great job once again.

But its a little bit sad to see again how uncreative agencies can be since it is almost the same spot.
Mar Quintana 4 months ago

I guess the point is money. I'm sure it's cheaper and faster for an agency to buy an idea already developed. I don't blame them..
Roman Ruetten 4 months ago

I think these are general discussions. And I think we shouldn't do it here. Since this spot is still very beautiful. I just loved the romantic of nuit blanche while this spot its still flawless !

Laurent MAKOWSKI 4 months ago

I follow what's been said already: it's too close to Nuit Blanche, which I prefer.

I understand the concept of buying an idea already developed , but one should just be inspired by it rather than doing pretty much a copy of it.

Well done anyway.

Dhouka BEN SOLTANA 4 months ago

Amazing !!!... i'm just speechless.. we all know that is inspired from Nuit blanche which is much more stunning.. But i loved how a short movie turned up to an advert.. with the powerful combination of image, music and lyrics..
Jacob Plumridge 4 months ago

Why is everyone complaining about it being two close to 'Nuit Blanche' that was it's purpose!!! Spy films were approached to recreate Nuit Blanche and bring colour and stereo 3d to the commercial. Doesn't remotely matter whether it was close to 'Nuit Blanche' at all because it's spy films who are recreating it. it was meant to look majorly different, there brief was to recreate nuit blanche, and they did it

It is interesting to see how much money and scale can go into a production and fail at achieving what the smaller scale 'nuit blanche' captured so beautifully.

I mean, good job on having someone come and pay you to make this ad, but the color - just, uck. The color just ruined it. The contrast shown in Nuit Blanche just made it so great.

Despite the jaw-dropping special effects, the best shot for me was the close-up of the girl's face at 0:38. Shorter, modern version of Nuit Blanche and just as mesmerising.
