Honda has recently released one of the most amazing commercials I have ever seen. The commercial is such a technical/engineering marvel that they have dedicated a large section of their website to it. You can watch the commercial through the Flash 6 player on Honda’s site, but there is a better version, along with some background on the commercial, available here. Here are a few interesting points:

  • Apparently the film took 606 takes.
  • The commercial is about two minutes long.
  • Everything in the commercial is “real”, meaning nothing was computer generated or enhanced.
  • Make sure you have your speakers turned up. The sound is very important.

    I did something like this with PEZ and Yoohoo bottles in college. Of course, mine wasn’t as simplistic as Honda’s…
