The Elements Music + Sound team went to Abbey Road Studios’ hallowed Studio 2–where The Beatles recorded some of their most loved music with George Martin–for a cinematic car film promoting the Corolla for Toyota Motor Europe out of agency The&Partnership
At Studio 2, Elements set up an 18-piece swing band to re-record arguably one of the most hip swing songs of the 1930s, Louis Prima’s “Sing Sing Sing,” as reimagined and scored by Guy Farley.
The global "Move Ahead" spot–in which a Corolla hybrid journeys through eras of transportation–was directed by Sam Brown and Mark Jenkinson, produced by Rogue Films and its sister shop Carnage.
