You Say You Want A Revolution

As one of the world's preeminent car photographers, Georg Fischer has shot for almost every car maker out there. Now you can add Chevrolet to that list. Fischer spent a month in California last fall and another month this February shooting Chevy cars and trucks for the company's biggest new model launch

in several years. Advertising agency Campbell-Ewald wanted bold, vibrant colors, and chief creative officer Bill Ludwig says they "wanted the point-of-view to be very uplifting, compelling and optimistic?what we call 'acceptable rebellion.'" Fischer delivered all that, and more.
