their first high
For Derek, it was this Hyundai campaign – his first ever foray into commercial work as a director – that caused the rush he’s been chasing ever since.
Wanting the spot to appeal to image-fatigued zillennials, Hyundai gave Derek carte blanche to create a pleasant, yet impactful, ad that borrowed its conventions from music videos.
With the whole of Vancouver shut down, Derek could use the streets as a playground.
