Honda ad (repost?)

[Paulson]

Wont play the whole way through

damnit.

Very cool! The whole thing is real, save for one second of CG to tie two clips together because they didn't have a large enough stage for the entire process. It was on Slashdot this morning, apparently it took them 5 months and 600+ takes to get it right... :Q

[edit]

yeah, the wheels looked a bit fake when they accelerated moving upwards, but very cool non the less

That was real... they put bolts and stuff inside the tires to act as weights that would pull each tire upwards.

Wow I wonder how long that took to get working. Or is it fake? :Q

last i checked, wheels don't roll upwards that easily. pretty smooth regardless.

it's real, they did that by placing weights on the top of the tires. The ad is REAL no tricks. The ad took 606 takes to shoot.

When the final, 606th take eventually succeeded, there was a stunned silence around the Paris studio. Then, like shipwrecked mariners finally realising that their ordeal was at an end, the team broke into a careworn chorus of increasingly defiant cheers and hurrahs.
