A Woman’s Life Through Dougal’s Eyes

Dougal Wilson’s latest spot for John Lewis (produced by Blink with VFX from MPC) flexes both his stronger and often contrasting skills; “in-camera” trickery whilst maintaining even pressure on the viewers’ heart strings.
The ambitious camera-move in this spot is an evolution of some of Dougal’s older work in the same vein (see Jarvis Cocker – “Don’t Let Him Waste Your Time” and Boots – “Bus Journey”) . While most folks get wrapped up in the technical aspect of such a project, Dougal continues to focus on the nuances of performance and warmth in cinematography that make this piece his own.
This is yet another prime example of the importance of a singular vision in an industry that can risk being diluted by technique-driven work and the sacrificed narrative that can come as a result.
