For EA, this is a rare foray into live action. The concept springs from an early client briefing: How to portray the game’s lead character, Sean Devlin, through different aspects of his personality. This first spot needed to establish his Irish heritage, his sense of humor, and his aptitude for cold-blooded assassination.

Check out the other two commercials in the series, Handy and Talented.

In this last installment, we wanted to slip in some sex. Even Sean Devlin needs to unwind between massacres. For the record, we didn’t use any explosives on set. In fact, we didn’t use much set. The street is mostly a matte painting.

The middle portion of the Saboteur triptych (the other spots are here and here). This outing needed to show Sean Devlin at his most devious. Cutting a radio’s power cable and then using it as a garrote seemed to have the requisite amount of elegance and perversity. Plus, it’s the perfect excuse for some Edith Piaf source music.
