The spots feature the engine sounds of the new Audi R8 V10 plus, Audi TT RS, and Audi SQ5 models as they rev their engines to recreate theme songs of three television shows that have influenced pop culture and generations of cultural dialogue.

The 30-second spots, by Venables Bell & Partners, are set in a white concert hall and feature the autos on treadmills, revving in time and pitch to ‘Where Everybody Knows Your Name’ from

Venables Bell & Partners launched an “Audi Orchestra” campaign for Audi centered around the brand’s sponsorship of the 69th Emmy Awards.

A series of three spots from VB&P promote the sponsorship with renditions of the theme songs from past Emmy nominees: Cheers, Star Trek and The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The catch? Each theme song is recreated via the engine sounds of the Audi R8 V10 plus, Audi TT RS, and Audi SQ5, with some accompaniment.

Progress is celebrating performance

Cheers

The Mary Tyler Moore Show

Star Trek

It’s a simple approach that really hinges on and underscores the sponsorship relationship. Each spot identifies the show, year and award it was nominated for before concluding with the tagline, “Progress is celebrating performance.” A bit limiting of a premise, the results also vary from spot to spot, with the melodies harder to discern in some more than others.

“Over the last several years, the wide array of captivating television programming has re-engaged America, so we wanted to celebrate the progressive role television plays in our culture as the automotive sponsor of the 69th Emmy Awards,” Audi of America vice president, marketing Loren Angelo said in a statement. “The annual Emmy Awards are a recognition of the power of television. ‘Audi Orchestra’ pays tribute to three of television’s most memorable shows with an interpretation of each theme song uniquely performed by the engines of our Audi products.”

To attract the attention of jaded New Yorkers who will scoff at the news with “Big deal, it’s just a store,” PIRCH decided to have fun with that and snark back: “It’s just a store like I’m just a…” and then fill in the blanks with tastemakers of all kinds.

Starring in the campaign are high-profile tastemakers from various industries including fashion icon Iris Apfel, author and television personality Padma Lakshmi, designer and author Nate Berkus, chef/restaurateur Geoffrey Zakarian and real estate mogul Luis Ortiz, among others.

The tastemakers are photographed in different home luxuries and draw comparisons to how they are “more than” ordinary members of the communities they represent.

PIRCH will be running this out of home campaign throughout New York on billboards, subway stations and taxis as well as print.

The future of television is here.
TV is a major part of our lives. We gather together around our big screens to watch big movies and big events. Yet somehow, the overall experience of TV has continued to stagnate. Until now. It all starts by recognising that apps are the future of television. Apps are quickly becoming how we watch today. So we built a new foundation around this vision — with a new operating system called tvOS and innovative ways to connect with your screen. This is the new Apple TV. This is where television is headed.

All the entertainment your TV can handle.

Games and apps on TV. It’s going to be huge.

A TV experience you’ve never experienced.
