Egg Films' Jason Fialkov directed Rise, the new Skyy Vodka commercial conceived by Young & Rubicam's chief creative officer Graham Lang and creative director Nkanyezi Masango.
Taking a music video approach, Jason created a seductive rooftop party full of surreal luster.
To escape the rain, the penthouse just rises above the clouds, thanks to some seamless CGI work from BlackGinger. The commercial is driven by an original composition from Pulse Music New York, who’ve worked with the likes of Mary J. Blige and Britney Spears. It’s shot by Peter Tischauser, styled by Elaine Jeacocks, and edited by Matthew Swanepoel at Priest.

Martell XO releases a new ad campaign / web film entitled "We All Have Wings." The new global campaign pays tribute to Martell's unique heritage, using its emblem, the swift. Legend has it that in 1715, a swift led Jean Martell to Cognac, where, he founded what would become the oldest of the great Houses of Cognac.
In this film the swift becomes a symbol of one's potential to achieve great things — just like Jean Martell nearly 300 years ago. Martell XO invites us all to spread our wings and take flight to rise above.
The music is soundtrack preformed by the members of the London Symphony Orchestra and mixed by Oscar-winning sound engineer Etienne Colin.

Premium distiller Jura is teasing fans of its whisky with a new campaign showing an artist’s impression of people tasting a thirty-nine-and-three-quarter-year old whisky, ahead of its launch next year. James Kirkham, Holler founding partner, said: “Our Jura activity is going to have a focus on breaking convention and not resorted to tried and tested category norms. This is a great first example of instant, smart, socially inspired promotions which ignite passion and get people talking.” A video of the event is below, and tweeters of a legal drinking age are in with a chance to win a vial of The 39 ¾ by retweeting it.
Creative agency Holler is behind the online and experiential campaign, called ‘Visual Taste of 39 ¾s’, which had its beginnings at the Jura Whisky Festival, where attendees were given an exclusive chance to taste the special tipple. Artist Robbie’s Brown Shoes, of the Puck Collective, was on hand to capture the reactions of the tasters and his creations are now being shown on Jura’s Facebook page, as well as distributed via Twitter.
