For the current Lincoln music promotion and integrated ad campaign via Team Detroit, Wild Plum Director Shane Drake teamed with visual effects company Ntropic to create a visually striking commercial and music video for electronica/indie rock rising stars Shiny Toy Guns.
In each, the Shiny Toy Guns glittery performance of Peter Schilling's hit Major Tom comes alive against a backdrop of screens showcasing the Lincoln MKZ. Ntropic designed the media projected on giant LED screen walls, which were then filmed with the live performance at the Orpheum theater for both the commercial and music video. Ntropic also provided graphics treatments, color correction and final composite.
For the backgrounds projected behind the band, Ntropic created a series of distinct environments designed to complement the galactic, ethereal quality of the song, while staying consistent with the intercut Lincoln MKZ commercials. These worlds were created by combining practically shot light elements with fully dimensional CG sets built in Maya, After Effects and Inferno.
In keeping with the live in-the-moment feeling of the performance it was decided to use super-bright LED screens behind the band rather than taking a more conventional green-screen approach.

This professional campaign titled 'Shiny Toy Guns Campaign' was published in United States in March, 2010. It was created for the brand: Lincoln, by ad agency: Team Detroit. This Digital medium campaign is related to the Automotive industry and contains 1 media asset. It was submitted about 14 years ago.
