After teasing a new brand identity tuned to its new SoHo headquarters with "The Arena," Cadillac on Sunday night rolled out a bicoastal ad at the 87th Annual Academy Awards.
Created by Publicis New York and Publicis UK, "Daring" delivers on the luxury auto brand’s "Dare Greatly" positioning as "downtown New York luxury meets the spirit of Silicon Valley."
Publicis worked with director Doug Liman and cinematographer Janusz Kaminski to feature creative artists and Silicon Valley entrepreneurs set in downtown New York. The subjects include Richard Linklater, Anne Wojcicki, Steve Wozniak, Jason Wu and Njeri Rionge.
Cadillac this week will also introduce a series of print ads to support the campaign.
