Megaforce and Time Based Arts for Lacoste

London VFX mavens Time Based Arts and star French directing collective Megaforce (Leo Berne, Clement Gallet, Charles Brisgand and Raphaël Rodriguez) tear apart life on several levels for French fashion brand Lacoste.

My gut says the turbulent emotions of young love set to well-paced action and spectacular environmental visuals all wrapped in Edith Piaf’s performance of “L’Hymne à l’amour” should bring home plenty of hardware come awards season.

Side note: The last time Megaforce and Time Based Arts got together, this happened.
