Backyards Rob Sanders directs Epic Johnnie Walker 100 year tribute.
March 18, 2008
You could almost call this Johnie Walkers Striding Man a short film rather than a commercial.
Every scene amazing and well composed.. It spans the major events of the last 100 years and never really indulges the brand with too much screen time. A true advertising gem. It leaves me feeling like i should walk down to my favorite pub and order a glass..
This commercial was directed by the always amazing Rob Sanders. Sanders has knack for shooting beautiful film, that always leaves you wanting more. I would highly recommend you checking out some more of his other work at backyard.com.
