Fiat is Here With You

The latest work from Will Innes Smith for Fiat is a colourful road trip pop infused delight, featuring music star Jacob Collier. 

Director Will Innes Smith explained the lengthy process for production: "Shot over two days in late May, Here With You is a new film for Fiat featuring multi Grammy award winning artist Jacob Collier and the brand’s all new electric car the Fiat 500e. The film follows Jacob on a quick cut journey of inspiration, as he leaves the city in pursuit of fresh air and a healthy dose of headspace, all set to Jacob’s re-interpretation of the classic Peggy Lee song Here With You."

"The film takes both visual and tonal cues from the look and personality of the car; a vibrant colour palette of acid tone, intercutting mixed media formats and cinematic framing all combining to merge youthful energy with high production values. The film was often a challenging one; a mix of false starts (production and otherwise), tight deadlines, non existent British spring sunshine, often making it feel like the job could take the wrong turn at any moment."

"But thanks to the tireless work of the crew - a special mention to Chris Clarke DOP, and resourcefulness of the production team - hat tip to Natalie Price at MilkMoney, it didn’t and we produced a film I’m enormously proud of."
