[Car ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/where-have-you-been) are usually comprised of sleek autos racing through a curvy mountainous road or through an urban jungle but Bullet by BMW Canada shows a car's strength through multiple obstacles that's spectacular.

This high-performance car ad provides moments of art that's created with a super slow motion photography effect. Viewers can see a [BMW M5](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-concept-speedtop) racing through a flat terrain, heading towards three obstacles that involves crashing into a concrete wall, massive water balloons and a giant glass apple.

The photography slows down the effects to reveal a magnificent show. The car whips through a giant red glass apple and the shattered glass falls like snow. These epic performances is a great [car art mashup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cao-fei-art-car) that portrays a vehicle's beauty and durability.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **High-performance Car Ads:** As car ads are known to be stereotypical, car companies with creative ad campaigns that feature unique concepts and creative storytelling may create a larger brand following.
- **Slow-motion Photography Ads:** Ad campaigns that feature slow-motion footage to emphasize the product's features and capabilities may attract more customers.
- **Artfully Crafted Car Ads:** Car companies that use creativity and artistry in their ads to showcase a vehicle's beauty and durability may attract a more diverse consumer base.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Automotive Industry:** Creative car ad campaigns have the potential to disrupt the automotive industry through innovative marketing and storytelling.
- **Advertising Industry:** Incorporating slow-motion photography and artful storytelling into advertisements may challenge traditional advertising methods and create a new standard for ad campaigns.
- **Film Industry:** The use of slow-motion photography in car ads provides an opportunity for filmmakers to showcase their creativity and expand their portfolio with corporate clients in the automotive industry.
