Ovaltine - Train
Ovaltina will pick you up! With an electronic 80s synth and a catchy theme tune, Ovaltina parachutes in to save the day
Overview
Ovaltina swoops in to save the day, rescue the stranded steam train and keep a memorable brand at the forefront of 1980s culture. Music video and advertising directors Annabel Jankel and Rocky Morton kept Ovaltine in the minds of television viewers throughout 1985 with a series of daring adventures featuring Ovaltina. The duo did much to push the boundaries of electronic graphics and animation in advertising and music videos. The previous year they had co-created the iconic Max Headroom character and they later went on to direct the Super Mario Brothers feature film.
