Why wait all year to shift through the four seasons when Absolute NY can lead you through them in fewer than thirty seconds?
Press Release from Absolute
Why wait all year to shift through the four seasons when Absolute NY can lead you through them in fewer than thirty seconds? The studio's techno-magicians return to do just that in a spot for Swedish energy giant Vattenfall via Lowe Brindfors, Stockholm.
Frost follows a man steadily walking across a pastoral landscape as the seasons meld from bright green summer to leaf-falling, multicolored autumn to snowy winter. As he walks, his wardrobe changes, from light jacket to heavy coat to parka-like hood. The spot ends with a shot of Absolute-generated snowflakes falling across the landscape and sticking in his beard, hair and jacket.
