THE NEW PEUGEOT 408
HERO FILM
Unexpected from every angle.
More of an art installation than a mere stunt, the launch of the new PEUGEOT 408 allows the viewers to enjoy every unexpected angle of the design while being in the realm of dreams or science fiction.
In collaboration with Peugeot, OPEn agency and our amazing friends at In/Off, we conceptualized the story, orchestrated the stunt, produced the Hero film + behind the scenes, and created THE SPHERE: standing 6m tall with a 5.1m diameter, THE SPHERE is as impressive as it is alluring. Powered by four 3500watt electric motors, THE SPHERE isn’t simply an imposing structure. It is built to rotate, to spin, to create the illusion of a car that defies gravity, twisting and turning elegantly through the air. And with each degree of rotation a new and even more unexpected angle of this alluring vehicle is discovered.
THE SPHERE was initially launched in the central courtyard of the beautiful Louvre-Lens grounds on Thursday 21 July, 2022. This stunning backdrop also served as the location for the highly engaging content that shared this alluring spectacle with the world on August 4th, 2022, directed by Sebastien Desmedt and post produced by Everest under the magic wand of Edouard Granero.
An immense thank you to Peugeot and OPEn for trusting our vision, supporting our creativity and pushing our team to dream big!
