Default S2000 Commercial Competition

Preface: I know there's another thread that is a contest of sorts. However, the restrictions are very restrictive, killing any of the creative juices that many S2K owners have.

This isn't a "true" contest, no awards will be won, but I thought it'd be nice to showcase home grown efforts and we can vote on a winner maybe every 90 days or whatnot. This whole idea came about from the Superbowl Commercials and what if Honda asked the community to make a commercial for the S2000 (assuming it was still in production). What would YOU come up with? What would showcase the S2000's characteristics, driving feel, handling prowess, etc? If you were a Honda Marketing Exec, what kind of commercial would you make?

Examples of Official Honda Commercials:

Another official Honda Commercial

Example of Home Grown/Original Honda Commercials:

Rules:
- Keep it UNDER 60 seconds. Ideally, 30 second spot would be perfect
- Be creative, use unique shots to showcase the S2000
- If you're not going to use original music, you might want to host it on Vimeo
- Content doesn't need to be original... if you cut and re-edit shots from movies, other commercials, and make it original and awesome, great, post it!


Just remember, the equipment you use doesn't make an idea or commercial awesome, it makes it easier...the idea and execution of the idea is what makes commercials great. Look at the Old Spice youtube response videos...

"Think I can make a right?" Why would you want to do that?
