Write a short summary of what happens in the film
Launched as a two-minute film, the spot showcases for the first time Hyundai’s
enterprising past. It begins with the Nexo, the latest fuel-cell car, arriving on the scene,
after which the film reels backwards in time to show all that preceded the present day.
The film hypnotically rewinds along with the mesmerizing track from the composer team
2wei, while the VO leads us on with “Progress doesn’t happen by chance, it’s shaped by
history…”
We soon find ourselves in a time when Hyundai not only made cars but built harbours
and ships, constructed bridges and dams, forged their steel, laid roads. Ultimately, we
see how it all started with the founder of Hyundai, Mr Chung Ju-yung, who began the
ambitious journey as a labourer carrying stones.
Tell the jury anything relevant about the cinematography.
The film was shot on Alexa cameras with Hawk anamorphic lenses to give a cinematic look to the story. Also used gels, filters and grading to enhance the different decades we visit and enforce the look throughout time. We’ve been very specific with the colors in each decade and scene to help a rewind storytelling through our look as well becoming more monochromatic back through time. And we used the elements that where a part of the narrative to help the reversed motions, like sparks, drops, stone, specific body movement etc.
