THE SPOTS
"Color Montage-Elph" and "Color Montage-A Series" (:30s) showcase Canon’s Digic chip, a "digital brain that provides vibrant colors for more beautiful pictures." The spots feature vignettes of people who have their photo taken by a Canon camera. Each photograph transitions to the next scene via a rainbow of colors and light. The spots end with a voiceover and type reading, "Digital revolutionized photography. We revolutionized digital," and finally the Canon logo and the tagline, "Know how."
Spots broke in October.
