Lovely art indeed.

Can anyone tell me what technique is used to achieve that awesome monotone on the buildings and background?

Yes, very good couple of photographers and postproduction, but the CGI was made by Rumblefish.

This confirms what most ppl think about italian advertisement.
Nice composition, looks pretty, the retouching is mostly fine. The idea is really really really really really bad.Looks like a bad and old tampon idea.
Have pitty with us check the copy it horrible its the worst thing of the ad besides the idea.

Common DDB start summing up points in cannes or you will get your ask kicked by TBWA again.

And of course this is Not a BigBadFatMadafaka idea.

Everything is so damn fashionable in Italy...even Domestos ads look like Dolce&Gabbana are rubbing the toilet..

is it just me, or does this BBFM guy have nothing good ever to say? Here's a thought: put up your work for our critique, ok? Else, just shut up.

I like it, it's nice.

I think it does a good job with a simple concept.

This ad goes against everything Audi is supposed to be about, and it's not particularly clever either. Dissappointing from a brand that traditionally does great advertising.

Maybe this will do the trick in Italy. It's the same with most Asian stuff... looks amateurish and dull in my opinion, but i think it works over there. Respect.

I don't think this ad suites the car.
If it was a cute looking, smaller car maybe. But this big, tough, masculine kinda car doesn't look so good when you see it like this..... But that's just my opinion.

Why silver??? Every single car out there seems to be silver (at least here in Germany). Plus, it totally ruins the idea, as said before.

I agree with mrtalented. Lovely art direction, but the car is pale too.

Sadly I have to say the lighting is not too good, the perspective on the car in relation to the rest of the image seems off, and the coloring and contrast of the Q7 seems blown out compared to rest of the image.

Don't be too patient, change work before it's too late.

it is because of silver color plus noontime ray of sun...

it causes much light.
