The visual effects & design team at Timber collaborated closely with agency creatives at Leo Burnett/Detroit over the summer on the recent Buick commercial, featuring Amazon’s Alexa. Unveiling the first-ever Buick Encore GX SUV with available Alexa built-in, the spot is scheduled to air throughout the fall. It's not a Buick, it's an Alexa.
