Summary/Abstract: This short paper focuses on the cobranding tendencies of the contemporary design and media industry. The author presents that strategy by the bias of the promotional fashion video which realizes a collaboration between two creative agencies: the film director and the ethos of the fashion house. Her chosen example is the fashion video of Roman Polanski realized for the Prada fashion house in 2012, entitled A Therapy featuring Helena Bonham Carter and Ben Kingsley. The article presents two main questions: that of the authorship and the relation of the auctorial names (1), and that of the relationships between art, applied art and industry in the perspective of storytellingand trans/crossmediality.
