Whitehouse Post Editor James Dierx recently collaborated with MJZ Director Dante Ariola via BBDO New York for “What Would Happen,” a stunning new spot for GE.
The piece deftly highlights GE’s focus on technological advancement with captivating imagery and smooth pacing throughout. To capture the spot’s sublime natural beauty, the crew traveled to Johannesburg and KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa for the shoot. Exploring life’s curiosities, the film asks what would happen if energy could come from anything, power could be anywhere, and light could seek out the dark, before answering with a simple and inspiring, “anything.”
