Bruce Sinclair, represented by Madrid- and Barcelona-based Tesauro, shot a three-commercial campaign for Iberia, the largest airline in Spain. Shot in Barcelona, the spots use babies to illustrate key points in the soon-to-be-privatized airline's image campaign. All of the spots begin with one baby, followed by camera moves that reveal the children are seated in an intricate pattern; one commercial shows the children sitting in a giant-size paper airplane, and another pulls back and out to reveal that several children are seated in a pattern resembling a jumbo jet. The most complex of the commercials begins in the same manner, but pulls back to reveal the children are arranged to represent a map of the entire planet. Post-production was done at Telson in Madrid. The campaign was created by Foote Cone & Belding/Tapsa in Madrid.
