    I know this forum isn't for videos, but I used to post here fairly often in the past (mainly landscapes) and don't get to take many photos these days.

    I work as a cinematographer and video editor now, and below are some frame grabs from the latest video I worked on. It's a "stunt" video for EMC corporation (that I work for in California) featuring Lotus F1 team. We filmed this in the UK a few weeks back, and it's taking off now online, with 4 million views in less than 72 hours. The video is here if you'd like a look;

    Cheers,

    Love that video!

    First 'still' posted is awesome photo too.

    But tell me, any computer trickery involved? I question everything I see on tv since seeing Jurassic Park when I was 12 or 13!

    Cheers :) No, it's 100% real. As they were hurtling down the runway I did wish for a second that we were faking it, as it was as terrifying as it looked!

    Thankfully, it went completely to plan, thanks to the skill of the stunt drivers. It was a one take thing as well, so it was a mixture or relief and joy when it went as planned, and everyone was okay.

    Thanks. We guessed that people would be interested in the making of something like this, especially given the unusual nature of the stunt. Plus, we wanted there to be no doubt as to the authenticity of the stunt, although there are a few people still with doubts! ;)

    I didn't watch the link you posted as I had already seen the finished advert 5 or 6 times in my facebook feed.
    But will watch it now!
