Buses Become Action-Packed in Denmark’s Epic Bus Commercia
Elise Ying-Hei Ho — October 18, 2012 — Marketing
Not everyone glorifies public transportation like Denmark in this epic bus commercial.
Alongside the epic battle music, the Midttrafik bus drives down the cement road to receive the rowdy crowd, all pumped and eager to board the legendary public bus. Packed with over-exaggerated slow-motion scenes, the epic bus commercial suggests luxuriously arousing seats, large panoramic windows and designer bell functions, all of which are nothing more than regular transportation functions. All jokes aside, the ad also focuses on the ease and advantages of public transportation by revealing a fast track bus only lane as well as how “street” and “long” it is.
Denmark isn’t afraid to put their buses under the spotlight in this corny, but effective ad -- why would they when their buses are so legendarily lustrous?
