Evian Rapper's Delight, ad agency: BETC Euro RSCG, production company: Partizan, director: Michael Gracey
Remember the Evian babies? Well, they're back...
Scarily, it's now over ten years since the first Evian babies appeared, performing in an underwater ballet. This time, they are out of the water and displaying their rollerskating skills in a new ad directed by Michael Gracey. The spot is set to a remix of Rapper's Delight by Dan The Automator, which is also available for download.
Making-of films and other info on the campaign can be found at evian.com.

I dont like them, its too 'messing with nature-ish'!! It reminds me of the stuff we are really doing to ourselves/offspring even though just an advert
Sad state of affairs

Absolutely fantastic, the best thing I have seen in a very long time.

The advert is very entertaining and the way the babies skate is impressive. It is disappointing that the vests worn by them have not been washed in persil! The vests look as if they have been washed as part of a mixed colour wash, and have an appearance of grey instead of gleaming whites!!
