The Presence Project
Commissioned by Y&R New York and shot on their home turf, Justin placed the car in the middle of Times Square and allowed the story to naturally unfold around it. Juxtaposing the car as the one point of stillness whilst the maelstrom of life orbits around it, proved to be hugely effective. Using time-lapse photography to show the ebb and flow of human traffic and clever filming techniques to capture the spontaneous reactions of passers-by, the resulting film is both genuine and credible. By showing the ‘Evoque’ holding its own against the famous NY backdrop and successfully distracting the crowds from the neon mega-city, Justin sends a powerful message about the latest addition to the renowned Range Rover brand.
