We’re proud to have been asked to music supervise Mercedes Benz epic campaign, ‘The Journey that Changed Everything’ - a four-minute film that honours the memory of Bertha Benz, the wife and business partner of Mercedes-Benz founder Carl Benz. Sebastian Strasser's majestic film tells of the day of her journey from Mannheim to Pforzheim, Germany in 1888. Bertha took her two sons out for the 12-hour, 106km/65-mile trip - determined to prove the potential of her husband’s work - at a time when people were sceptical, even fearful, of his invention. We knew we had to pull out all of the stops to create a score that helped support Sebastian and his team's incredible work. After an extensive research period, we settled on the musical direction with Sebastian and called on the remarkable composing talents of Steffen Thum, and Grammy-winning, Emmy and Bafta nominated, Lorne Balfe. What they scored for this campaign is truly outstanding. This film documents an empowering tale of triumph and self-belief, and we're thrilled to have been part of bringing Bertha's groundbreaking journey to life. A very special thanks to Christoph Petzenhauser for his support throughout this project.
