Microsoft Windows and agency Droga5 capture the swirling momentum of creation to showcase the most advanced Windows laptop ever.

Microsoft Windows Creative Team and Droga5, part of Accenture Song, are celebrating the creators, coders and gamers who can't stop thinking about their next idea in a new Windows campaign, What will you do with all this power? Led by the hero film Obsession Comes Around, the work introduces the most advanced Windows laptops ever, Windows PCs powered by NVIDIA RTX Spark, just in time for the holiday upgrade season.

Today's builders and creators are asking more of their machines than ever: multitasking across heavy files, developing, rendering, coding, gaming and more all from wherever inspiration hits. The problem is that most machines aren't capable of supporting such advanced workloads simultaneously. So, the teams set out to show how whenever and wherever inspiration strikes, new Windows PCs powered by Nvidia RTX Spark chips can meet even the most demanding moments of obsession. A cast of passionate makers (coders, gamers, visual artists, and game developers) turn capabilities like local AI, multitasking intensive apps and untethered power into stories about what becomes possible when your laptop can finally keep up with your ambition.

Directed by Ryan Chun of Magna, Obsession Comes Around is built on continuous camera orbits. Each time the camera comes back around, something has changed: the work has progressed, the ambition has grown, and the creators are pushing their ideas even further. The film is set to a reimagined She'll Be Coming 'Round the Mountain, by Anna Graceman with new lyrics written around the creative process, giving the spot its momentum and playful sense of repetition.

The campaign will run nationally across TV, streaming, social, digital, search, creator content and media partnerships, including a spot on NFL Monday Night Football on 10/12 The work is the Windows Creative Team and Droga5’s second campaign created and crafted together and the latest chapter in Microsoft and Droga5’s partnership, across three brands.

Cristina Reina, Chief Creative Experience Officer, Droga5 NY/Americas said: “There's something beautiful about the way makers and creators think. You start with one idea, and before you know it, you're completely obsessed, pushing it further and further. We wanted to celebrate that relentless curiosity and what becomes possible when you finally have a computer powerful enough to keep up with your imagination. So we built a film that goes around and around. From the music to the camera movements, everything revolves around that obsession, with every turn taking the ideas somewhere bigger. It's been great building on our partnership with the Windows team after ‘Doppelmode.’ Once again, they embraced and partnered with us to bring the ambition, craft and playfulness of the idea to life from the start.”
