To promote the launch of the Verdera Voice Lighted Mirror with built-in voice control, Kohler tapped RSA Films’ award-winning filmmaker and visual effects artist, Robert Stromberg (Maleficent), to direct the spellbinding centerpiece TV commercial for its new 'Mirror, Mirror' TV, print and out of home campaign.

The commercial features a modern-day “evil” queen using Kohler’s first mirror-of-its-kind in the market to transform from a villainous character into the best version of herself. At the queen’s bidding, the mirror turns the lights on to make up mode, starts her music playlist, informs her of the nail salon’s hours, adds items to her shopping list and, in a surprise twist at the end, starts her Kohler DTV+ Shower System.

RSA’s Stromberg commented, “It was great to bring this character to life with the Kohler team. I feel our Queen brings a strong but playful presence to the brand while forging a memorable connection to the product itself.”
