nklr- honda commercial
Read before you watch.
Read the story, and then hit the link to see the commercial.
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 and took three months to complete including full engineering of the sequence.
In addition, it is two minutes long so every time Honda airs the film on British television, they're shelling out enough dough to keep any one of us in clover for a lifetime.
However, it is fast becoming the most downloaded advertisement in Internet history.
Honda executives figure the ad will soon pay for itself simply in "free viewings" (Honda isn't paying a dime to have you watch this commercial!).
When the ad was pitched to senior executives, they signed off on it immediately without any hesitation - including the costs. There are six and only six hand-made Honda Accords in the world. To the horror of Honda engineers, the filmmakers disassembled two of them to make the film.
Everything you see in the film (aside from the walls, floor, ramp, and complete Honda Accord) is parts from those two cars.
The voiceover is Garrison Keillor. When the ad was shown to Honda executives, they liked it and commented on how amazing computer graphics have gotten. They fell off their chairs when they found out it was for real. Oh, and about those funky windshield wipers. On the new Accords, the windshield wipers have water sensors and are designed to start doing their thing automatically as soon as they become wet. It looks a bit weird in the commercial.

I must be some sort of stupid or something but what am I supposed to do once
I open the link? It goes to a main page for Albino Blacksheep with hundreds
of choices that I can make, none of which make any reference to Honda or a
commercial.

photoshop magic. But you say it's all really happening??

Some of those moves defy not only common logic but the laws of gravity and
physics as well.

malfunctioning temp gage
gauge stopped working right after I got it back. What would cause that? Something from the servicing? The gage sender is located next to the spark plug in the head. There should be a quick-disconnect tab in the head, that the wire attaches to. I'm guessing they forgot to reattach it. Sorry if this has already been answered. Krokko -- J.
