Hasta La Creative!

Directed by Olivier Gondry, Finger Music collaborate with m:united & Microsoft to introduce the new Surface 3 and Surface Pro 3 Tablets with a brand new beat which has been developed with viral internet pen-tapping stars, Shane Bang and Kevin Ke.

Finger’s Creative Director and Composer, Dave Hodge, was brought in from the beginning of the creative process to develop a custom composition for the brand utilising the beats created by the famous Pen Beat Battle tappers.

There are four films in the Surface Beats campaign 2 x 30” (3,2,1 Go and College Flow) and 3 x 15”. Each have a strong focus on the product, with the aim of intertwining the snapping and clicking sounds of the tablets with the rhythmic pen tapping.

Dave Hodge, explains, “The spots were briefed from the beginning to be very rhythmic, when m:united sourced Shane and Kevin, we knew the filming would also incorporate the rhythmic movements of their hands. Being brought in at this early stage meant that we were able to get the process of the filming, edit and music to harmonise throughout the production process.”
