Synopsis:
For over 3 minutes an ad break showed nothing but a man painting a fence. A brave, bold, risky TV event, but why do it? Ronseal are famous for honesty, so trying to make DIY seem a fun way to spend your weekend, didn’t seem right. Transporting people into the moment, in all DIY, when you realise it isn’t going to be over with quickly. While demonstrating Ronseal helps get the job done easily. Heralded as the first ‘slow TV’ ad, it stood out against other ads, social media, second screens and all the other noise of the modern world.
