BBDO New York recently commissioned Australian director and Ben Trovato favorite Ben Briand to bring a unique series of short films to life. Due to the overwhelming reach of Briand's previous short films that were featured on Ben Trovato back in March 2011, the agency was keen to get Briand onboard for their client The Art Of Shaving. Based out of New York, the client's aesthetic is a throwback to the 1950's and 60's when a straight razor was common place. The result is three wry and amusing short films that evoke the charm and style of remerging masculinity. The Reformed Troglodyte was the one film of the collection that stood out to us, and we decided to catch up with Briand to hear his thoughts on his latest project.
