Basil Schlegel
Basil Schlegel’s first ad campaign got him short-listed at the Art Directors Club of Germany, Epica France, The New York Festivals, and won him top honors at The London International Advertising Awards.
By 2000, he helmed the launch for the Guggenheim Bilbao Museum in Spain as well as spots for the British Museum of Photography, Film, and Television in the UK, Sony in South East Asia, and Miller Beer in the US.
To date Basil Schlegel has directed more than 250 ads and media projects in over twenty-five countries worldwide for clients including Sony, Visa, McDonald’s, and Coca Cola.
Basil’s work paints the filmmaker as a visual storyteller in touch with the full spectrum of human emotion. He describes his ads as ‘mini-movies’ striving to work on the same scale and quality as contemporary features.
Recognitions for Basil Schlegel’s work in commercials include gold at the London International Advertising Festivals (LIA); gold and silver at El Gran Jurado Mexico; silver at Promax & BDA; silver at The Chinese Advertising Award; and silver at The Kancil Awards.
