Volvo V90, Prologue



MPC Paris, Adam Berg and Forsman & Bodenfors Create 'Prologue' for Volvo V90

Ahead of UEFA Euro 2016, Forsman & Bodenfors launched a campaign for Volvo featuring Sweden national team captain Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The spot focuses on the national star’s humble beginnings as the child of Croatian and Bosnian immigrants growing up in a small Swedish suburb.

MPC Paris collaborated with Adam Berg and Indio to create the stunning film. The VFX team built the stadium in full CG, added crowds in the street and around the stadium, tracked DMPs of Paris into the windows of the apartment, and cleaned up and enhanced all the shots in 2D. Mark Gethin in MPC LA completed the grade via MPC’s Remote Grading network. 

Volvo are using Ibrahimovic’s life story to draw parallels with Volvo’s ‘journey’ as a car maker, with both daring to think differently and tread their own path.
