Art Director at Nissan Cooks Up Shiny New Rogue Ad All By Himself

nissan rogue 2.png

This is pretty neat. Here's the Nissan Rogue ad that goes with the marble virals floating around on YouTube. Perhaps you saw it when it appeared during the season premier of Heroes last week.

But instead of a marble wandering its way through a neatly-hedged maze, the Rogue itself is speeding through an obstacle-ridden city.

Funnier still is this commentary from REmixed, which attributes the work entirely to his art director buddy Ken. The commercial is even dubbed "Ken's Nissan Rogue ad."

Our west coast contact wryly notes, "Maybe he even cooked the food for the crew at craft services..."

Good. Those commercials are annoying.

And AMC makes the real Rogue.

Well, regardless of who did all the work- its a cool commercial- nice to see something more creative than the usual car ads.

This is a great TVC.
But those driving sequences would never make it through EU regulators like the English BAC or French BVP. :(
