A brilliant ad? or visual noise? Beautiful cinematography, but is it predisposing consumers to prefer a brand? Unlikely. (See the link to the ad in the comments) Speaking of brand, there is no role for any brand There is no clear brand benefit. A brand name is a new logo at the end of the video. Could it be for anything if you miss the last few seconds? Probably. So what is happening in this video? There is no visual story. Here is what an average human sees: - Doors open to reveal a group of humans dressed in bright colours - People walking - a purple background - A human in a red dress - an orange background - A human spinning - paint brushing white - A human walking with a hammer - a blue background - A group of humans sitting - a purple background - Humans walking backwards - words that read "copy nothing" - A rock - a word that reads "jaguar" In the sea of stimuli in our media environment, is this an ad that predisposes consumers or one more element of visual noise?' Is this brilliant advertising or does it miss the point of what advertising should do? It misses the mark in my view. It is one of my learnings of the week. I would love to see the post-tracking results. What do you think? #marketing #branding #management #mentoring

The branding is weak and link to what the brand is and stands for unclear. I think it misses the mark

Given how universally panned this rebrand is, hopefully it won’t last long enough in market for post-tracking results.

All valid points Peter Rodriguez MBA, Chartered Marketer exhausted with all the negativity around the topic I decided to check what Jaguar has to say. It's worth reading their official press-release to understand where they plan to go with this ad, that is just the first step of something new. Let's see what happens next...

One of the worst rebranding exercises ever IMHO. This is what happens when leadership is clueless about the brand, branding in general, and their role as guardians of the Brand Identity. This is why I insist on including C-Suite and ideally Board Members in an abbreviated form of the brand training we do for Brand Teams. They need to know how they can proper guardians for their most valuable asset - the brands under their stewardship. Shame, really.
