United Airlines: World Orchestra by mcgarrybowen
- Location:
‘World Orchestra,’ was made for United Airlines to demonstrate the power of music, and travel, to unite the world. It features Gershwin’s iconic Rhapsody in Blue, a signature element of all United’s commercials, but in a fresh new way. The film depicts musicians from one culture transported to another. A Chicago blues jazz trombonist plays in a Shanghai bamboo forest, while a Japanese flutist plays against the vast expanse of the Grand Canyon. The spot ends with the shot of the German alphornist playing on the Presidio of San Francisco – announcing to the world that San Francisco is now United’s newest global hub.
The spot is part of the ‘Uniting the World’ fall campaign from United Airlines and from Mcgarrybowen New York.
The integrated campaign also includes in-market radio, OOH, digital, social, and in-flight.
