Wed 12th Nov 2014Royal Salute premieres Stories of Power and Grace A film, focused on Facundo Pieres and Jean-Francois Pignon, is the first installment in a series produced by the luxury whisky distillery
Royal Salute has created the Stories of Power and Grace series to enhance the link between this exceptional whisky and the extraordinary characters within the equine world; a world at the heart of Royal Salute. The film features Global Polo Ambassador for Royal Salute World Polo and 10 goal professional, Facundo Pieres and Jean-Francois Pignon, a horse whisperer from rural France.
“This is a great new way for Royal Salute to communicate,” explains Pieres. “They took two very different men and their relationship with their horses – a horse whisperer from France, and me. We’ve just been shooting some slow-motion imagery. When you capture a polo horse in slow motion, it looks amazing. These animals are superbly trained and well looked after and in close-up slow motion, you can really see what beautiful athletes they are. You can see their speed, power and strength, but also their grace, balance and elegance.”
Neil Macdonald, Global Brand Director for Royal Salute commented, “Power and Grace perfectly sum up the style of Royal Salute whisky and extend to create an engaging story about the powerful bond between man and horse.” Watch the stunning video here: Photograph: Facundo Pieres is featured in Royal Salute's film, Stories of Power and Grace.
