Don’t move – the new Ford print ads are here

26 August 2009

Ogilvy Advertising has created a new set of print ads for Ford’s “Masterbrand” campaign. Following on from the TV advert which first aired in this year’s Champions League semi-final, the prints capture Ford’s “Kinetic Design” philosophy, which means the car looks like it’s moving, even when it’s not.

There are five executions in total, in both 48 sheet and print format, and each display’s a different Ford model moving the world around them, whilst they remain still.

Above is the stationery Ford Mondeo disrupting autumn leaves on a country road, whilst below an immobile Ford Focus sits in the rain, splashing puddles. Click on the images to enlarge.

The next prints will be posted on this blog soon, so come back here to see them first.
