A short sponsor message by ORANGE for an iconic talent show.
De Lage Landen was a radio series highlighting the differences between Holland and Flanders. Starting with the language.
Here are a couple of ideas that never got shot, unfortunately.
We Should Catch Up Soon
SVO: We should catch up soon. With NESCAFE.
Daniel ends a series of comments on his friend’s Bruno Facebook wall:
Team Nescafé turns the ‘future’ meeting of the two friends into a real meeting within hours. Team Nescafé contacts Daniel to get the location of both friends.
A helicopter picks up Bruno at home, a red stretch limo picks up Daniel at work.
During their trip, the two talk about their friendship.
Destination is bar “We Should Catch up Soon”, which is a little coffee spot in a beautiful park. The name of the bar lights up in bright neon.
The two arrive simultaneously. They laugh incredulously.
Bruno and Daniel share a cup of coffee.
We see more pairs of friends around them.

Nescafé brings people together.
The Largest Synchrone Drift
The Largest Synchrone Drift Ever
We organize the world’s first and largest synchrone drift as a big stunt.
We tap into the international drift community to locate 20, 30, 40… pilots. They get trained for the world’s largest synchrone drift. This huge choreography with 20 to 40 cars is only possible with a dedicated top team of collaborators (pilots, choreographer, director, technicians, scientists,…).
The drivers perform an aesthetic car ballet that is beautifully shot in the desert (slowmotion, drone shots, smoke curling round the tyres… ). We create a mind-blowing film that’s so unique it goes viral in a heartbeat.
“If that oil is good enough for these drifters, it sure is good enough for me…”
Slightly Different Cyclops
SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT CYCLOPS
A Slice of life series of short films featuring ‘slightly different’ people.
A Cyclops in a photography course.
“I think it was here… I first discovered I was a bit more… unusual than others.”
We see the camera in front of his one central eye, zooming in on a still life.

“Obviously, some things are more complicated than others.”
CUT TO the Cyclops driving a motorcycle. He wears a helmet. A fly hits his one eye and he nearly crashes the bike.
“But all in all, I feel just like you. Only different.”

SVO: HOEGAARDEN. SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT.
Slightly Different Pinokkio
SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT PINOKKIO
A Slice of life series of short films featuring ‘slightly different’ people.
In front of a television, Pinokkio is greasing his joints with oil.
“I think I’ve always known… I was a bit different than other people.”
He moves his leg up and down and listens to them squawking
CUT TO this bathroom. He is taking a bath.
“Obviously, some things are more complicated than others.”
We see him floating in the tub. Eyes wide open.
CUT TO a campfire at night, people are singing to a guitar.
He keeps a distance.
“Campfires are scary.”
