My offbeat adventure through film

John Lewis famous Christmas adverts Each year around December (Christmas time) John Lewis releases a new advertisement celebrating the festive season whilst also promoting themselves and they even normally create there own little unique gimmick to go along with it, for example last year they created a little dragon plushie to go along with the dragon that they used in the advert making them popular Christmas adverts among children as well.  Each year there ads get more and more and even more popular due to there creative thinking and having the ability to think out side the box.

Actors episode 1: Daniel Cooper, Dylan Pitt, Ethan Brown, Henry Walton, Iona Dixon, Michael Scott-Kaiser episode 2: Daniel Cooper, Henry Walton episode 3: Daniel Cooper Episode 1 For episode one I had chosen to create a sketch that had shown just how crazy lockdown was making everyone and I showed this through the over the top actions the characters were doing for example one scene had someone holding things upside down along with another scene where a character was cooking a shoe.  How it went?
