Check This Out
A friend sent me this e-mail of a very cool comercial, even if it's for a Honda.
I'm told there are no computer graphics or digital tricks in the film. Everything you see really happened in real time exactly as you see it.
The film took 606 takes. On the first 605 takes, something, usually
very minor, didn't work. They would then have to set the whole
thing up again. The crew spent weeks shooting night and day. By the
time it was over, they were ready to change professions. The film
cost six million dollars (holy ----!) and took three months to complete.

Re: Check This Out (GrandSportC3)
Makes you just want to run out and buy a rice burning Honda ...don't it?? That is probably the same procedure you have to go through at the Honda parts counter to get a part..as the guys are running around in the back doing all that crap. No wonder import parts cost 3x's what American parts cost!!! :smash: :smash:
