Knights trade blows--and fashion banter--in PS4 spot
A trio of spots from BBH NY and Anonymous Content zoom in on the details
Editor's Pick
Even in the heat of battle, it's the little things that count.
Two armored knights are locked in a pitched swordfight, but one can't help but comment on the exquisite details in his opponent's cuirass. Turns out there's a talented blacksmith in a nearby town (in the square, not on the corner). But after a well-placed strike near the edge of a cliff, the battle and the conversation both end abruptly.
The banter comes courtesy of the PS4 Pro, which offers hi-definition 4K gaming. The spot is the first in the "Missed Details" campaign for PlayStation from BBH New York, directed by Tim Godsall of Anonymous Content.
In October, a second spot featuring a distracted vampire will air, followed by a third spot starring a squad of soldiers who can't take their eyes off their commanding officer.
Previous BBH work for PlayStation has focused on the acoustic and escapist benefits of gaming, and the agency has created epic short films for specific games like "Star Wars Battlefront II."
