Many directors of big cinema were engaged not only in the creation of film masterpieces but also in the shooting of commercials. Big brands often hire the best filmmakers when shooting their commercials. Speaking of filming the best advertising of all times, you involuntarily recall Ridley Scott, the author of such masterpieces as Alien, Blade Runner, and Gladiator. His Chanel #5 and 1984 commercials for the Apple Macintosh are still considered the best ever. Elvira Gavrilova directs not only advertising but also shoots videos, produces large-scale projects and people. That was why Elvira Gavrilova was entrusted with shooting the commercial for the luxury brand Hotel de Paris Odessa MGallery By Sofitel.

It’s not a secret that many directors have favorite actors, who are their muses. Sharon Tate has always been a muse for Polanski, Uma Thurman inspires Quentin Tarantino, and Penelope Cruz gives inspiration to Pedro Almodovar.
