Mercedes-Benz UK Premiers Third And Final "I Am Mercedes-Benz" Ad
Posted August 6, 2008 At 10:45 AM CST by T. Philips
Although up until now we've yet to mention them here at eMercedesBenz, in the UK, Mercedes-Benz has a fantastic series of television commercials under the motto "I am Mercedes-Benz." Distinctly film-like, the ads each center around a single theme, such as "Presence" and "Attraction," with the third and final ad unveiled earlier this week focusing on the subject of "Ambition."
While I won't give
too many details of the ad away, as I recommend instead simply viewing it for yourself, I can tell you that the commercial was shot in Romania and Suffolk and features actor David Leon (who'll be appearing in Guy Ritchie's forthcoming RocknRolla), while the soundtrack is Nick Cave's "Queenie's Suite" from The Proposition soundtrack.
If you're interested in seeing more of the "I am Mercedes-Benz" series, in addition to the above video, you can also see an extended version of each of three television ads at the official Mercedes-Benz UK website, along with a special "Making Of" feature as well. If you haven't seen them yet, I highly recommend taking a moment to view each of them - they're well worth the price of admission.
Enjoy ladies and gentlemen.
And before I go, a special thanks to James of Weapon 7 for directing us to the new video.
