Music Star Jacob Collier is 'Here With You' in Fiat Spot from Director Will Innes Smith

The latest work from Will Innes Smith for Fiat is a colourful road trip pop-infused delight, featuring music star Jacob Collier.

Director Will Innes Smith explained the lengthy process for production: “Shot over two days in late May, ‘Here With You’ is a new film for Fiat featuring multi Grammy award winning artist Jacob Collier and the brand’s all new electric car the Fiat 500e. The film follows Jacob on a quick cut journey of inspiration - as he leaves the city in pursuit of fresh air and a healthy dose of headspace - all set to Jacob’s re-interpretation of the classic Peggy Lee song “Here With You.”

"The film takes both visual and tonal cues from the look and personality of the car; a vibrant colour palette of acid tone, intercutting mixed media formats and cinematic framing all combining to merge youthful energy with high production values. The film was often a challenging one; a mix of false starts (production and otherwise), tight deadlines, non existent British spring sunshine - often making it feel like the job could take the wrong turn at any moment.

"But thanks to the tireless work of the crew - a special mention to Chris Clarke DOP - and resourcefulness of the production team - hat tip to Natalie Price at MilkMoney - it didn’t and we produced a film I’m enormously proud of.”
