Alex and Steffen go to Infinity and beyond!

Spy Films and directing duo Alex & Steffen, roll out the latest spot for communications company, Batelco.

“At over three minutes long, the film plunges the viewer into an Inception-style environment and delves into the minds of its protagonists as they re-imagine the world around them. And since the film was launched on its dedicated Facebook fanpage earlier this week it’s been gaining international momentum.” – Shots Magazine

The Batelco commercial has garnered the attention of renowned tech blog Gizmodo:

“I don’t want to spoil any part of this video for you, other than to say this: think of everything incredible that your imagination could stuff into a metropolis in three and a half minutes. Most of it’s here.” – Gizmodo

Alex Roman Above Everything Else

Alex Roman

Spy director Alex Roman directs spot for Silestone brand counter-tops.

“Although this spot is 100% CG, the beauty of the shots distract the viewer from this amazing fact. Each composition is elegantly balanced: light counterweights dark, chaos challenges order. The sparse soundtrack creates a sense of lightness and wonder, and we are invited into a world that seems so real, so tangible, that we fully accept the glass-like shattering of grapes and peppers.” -Motionographer
