EF have produced a series of videos combining beautiful visuals and some clever typography to advertise their language learning schools. The one below is for Beijing. Thankfully the protagonist is a little more adventurous than many laowai here and shows some glimpses into city and home life beyond the major tourist sights.
They’re all high quality videos, so click the four outward facing arrows ^ in the bottom right to view them in full screen.
London, Paris and Barcelona have their own equally attractive videos, most of which hint that the schools also act as a successful dating agency.
Hello Steve! Did you see that this weekend we posted 3 more films in the same series, from Sydney, Vancouver and Los Angeles? They were produced by the same creative team as the first films.
