Fit Is Still Go

A few days ago I posted a new Honda Fit spot created by Digital Domain and directed by Eric Barba and Brad Parker, and just discovered that we can be treated to two more spots! So here you have it:

Both carry the satisfyingly quirky attitude of the campaign rather successfully through their design choices and cutesy characterizations. I’m especially in favor of Defense Mechanism. This spot does a great job in turning cars into characters which can be a very difficult task to achieve. The choice to turn the Fit into a blow fish is a rather brilliant move in keeping the Fit a cutesy, pixar-esque character is something that I loved.
