Charles Blunier & Co. Creates Mercedes '140 Years' Film

Zurich-based creative agency Charles Blunier & Co. developed a film titled "140 Years" for Mercedes‑Benz to mark the brand's 140th anniversary. The production accompanied the world premiere of the new S‑Class. Studio Haw‑Lin handled the film's visual design, translating historical Mercedes models into a contemporary visual language rather than using archival footage. The film will be distributed via Mercedes‑Benz's social media channels and shown at international brand locations. Charles Blunier called convincing Mercedes‑Benz to avoid classic archival storytelling the project's main challenge. The agency describes the work as a reference mandate in the international premium segment; no further scope or vendor details were disclosed.

BMW Trials Corners in Kafkaesque Courtroom Ad

BMW released an absurdist short film-style ad called “Get Even With Corners” that frames corners as a public menace in a Kafkaesque courtroom setting, only revealing the BMW M car at the end as it drifts around a racetrack. The campaign was created by Serviceplan Middle East and directed by Nalle Sjöblad through DejaVu Productions, in partnership with AGMC, the authorized BMW Group importer for Dubai, Sharjah and the Northern Emirates. Ziad Boghdady of AGMC described the spot as an invitation to experience BMW M’s driving dynamics at corners. The article places the work in a broader trend of automotive brands using humor and creative storytelling to stand out in advertising.
