'Let your mind wander' cinema ad aims for curious readers left cold by Economist's traditional red-poster campaigns

The Economist is launching a radical new brand strategy with its first cinema ad in eight years – a 70 second commercial featuring a high-wire walker.

Abbott Mead Vickers BBDO, the Economist's long-standing ad agency, created the new campaign. "Red Wires" was directed by Tom Carty. Media planning and buying was handled by PHD.
