Sprint is really laying it on thick with its “Sprint ahead” campaign. In tangent with Goodby, Silverstein & Partners, SF, Exopolis has put together a Sprint ad that will appear on stadium jumbotrons this NFL season. It is called “NFL at SprintSpeed Jumbotron.” No, we didn’t make that up.
Anyway, the ad features a couple of football players running shrouded by darkness except for the ambient light and enchanted microfiber magic surrounding them. The end of the spot culminates in a glorified tackle that looks more like a Lifetime movie embrace. This tryst explodes into still more light, flying symmetrically out of the two bodies and toward the rest of the frame.
It’s very Disney.
Then there’s the Sprint logo. Then, “Proud sponsor and avid fan of the NFL.”
Avid, eh?
