Using your nighttime fantasies, ad agency Publicis developed a series of ads to promote the Renault Visio System. Since the Visio System keeps you awake and alert when driving, the ads encourage viewers not to "Dream and Drive." The print ads show your dreams and fantasies in first person while an off-putting part of the real world creeps in.
Things that are completely out of place in each scene are subtly blended in to the background. Above their heads is the text asking that you stop dreaming. In one scene, you see yourself playing guitar in front of a large audience. Hidden within the audience is giant and stoic mouse. In another ad, construction workers are blended into an audience of your fashion show.
