My favourite Honda advert so far........
trogdor - 27/4/09 at 04:49 PM

I have always been a fan of honda adverts,

Their latest one is my favourite by far, its a field of honda cars, hybrids I think that in the perfect location and time so that their head lights flashing create 80's computer graphics.

Must of used a computer to control the flashing but is very cool

here is a link to it on youtube:

Quite cool. They must have spaced the rear cars out more to make the "screen" look vertical. Quite a bit of work just to get the cars in the right place.

Maybe it was computer controlled, or maybe as it was done at night, it was done with lots of people in the cars listening to walkie talkies and them cutting together shots of the results to make a film.

Omega... you are perfectly correct! Have a 'Gold Star'!

Trogdor... you are unfortunately wrong! Stand in the corner with a traffic-cone on your head with a big 'D' on it!

IMO its done with CGI, its not *really* happening. I'll happily stand corrected, but would seem the easiest way to generate the complex sequence of lighting

If they stopped wasting so much money on adverts they could still afford a F1 team.

Come on - you didn't actually think they'd use CGI, did you?! Just wouldn't be Honda's style. Not after the single take Rude Goldberg machine and the live skydive.
