Hamlet - The Wall

Hamlet – The Wall
Another famous Hamlet commercial from CDP and directed by Graham Rose. The sheer range of settings allowed by the unchanging but flexible campaign strategy allowed for consistently entertaining executions from the legendary CDP creative department. No one can ever say ‘well it was easy doing these spots’. Filling the football stadium with what looks like a crowd of 50,000 at an international with just 250 extras was no easy feat. And all before the days of effective CGI.

Hamlet – Pink Shiny Dome
What with ‘Photobooth’ and now this one, people will think CDP had a thing with baldies. This spot was another award winner in arguably the most successful and certainly the longest running campaign the agency produced. Directed by Graham Rose, the music is seemingly played ‘live’ by the Jazz trio in the room. Striking the match on the bald pate was a spot of complete unscripted inspiration.
