Pedigree Dog Commercial Slow Motion



Pedigree’s new commercial featuring dogs in super slow motion is going viral. According to CREATIVITY-online, the director used a Phantom camera at 1,000 fps (frames-per-second) to capture the dogs in action.

Director Bob Purman explained how they’ve achieved the shots using two spots, a “Catch” and a “Jump” execution:

“The ‘Catch’ spot was to be a series of shots of dogs looking with anticipation as a piece of dog food is flying through the air towards them. We shot close-ups of the dogs at 1000 fps. The result was really wonderfully anthropomorphic. The super slow motion really captured this intense sense of desire in the dogs’ eyes. To me it was equal parts awe inspiring and hilarious to see so rich a palate of personality in a dog’s facial expressions. A few days after the shoot I started to get emails from Mark, Steph and the editor Chris Parkins with the different iterations of the spots cut to different music selections, all of them interesting for different reasons. But then they put footage from the two spots together to form this new greater whole that really exploits the dynamics of the dogs’ athleticism and their emotive personality in slowed time.”
