  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Lincoln™ Motor Company: Time

Loved the cinematography and flow of piece. Voiceover felt a little on the nose to me. Made me want to look at rest of your work and was amazed at a lot of the aerials and overall quality.

Thanks for the honest opinion, Appreciated :)
 
Do you own the Kowas Chris? Last set I used was incredibly stiff even in warm weather and REALLY stiff in 40 degree weather. Wasn't sure if the rehousing done helped with that.
 
They aren't mine, I would love to own them! A few though were VERY soft opened up and distorted, beyond use.

A very nice spot!

Great color, I think this is an example of the power of Dragon, with a good post production you can make it look like anything, I would say this was shot on Alexa if I didn't know.

And I'd put the awesome shot with the opened door and waves at the very end, as this sums up the whole spot neatly - "ride a Lincoln towards freedom". Something like that :)
 
Thank you Demetri, I totally agree. I LOVE my dragon. I liked me epic. Dragon amazes me every day.

Agree on the voice over, but god damn was that pretty. Makes me want to get anamorphics immediately.
 
Very nice looking. But, I can't help hearing "Where Is My Mind?" by Pixies. The music has the same basic chord progression, a similar melody to the main guitar riff, the melody at 0:41 is a dead ringer and it's even in the same key. I'd say there's some liberal borrowing going on.

Actually the music is from one of the commercials that's clearly an inspiration. So that music is cleared. Not saying I'm not agreeing about the similarity.

Beautiful work, but if you want to send it around to the large agencies it's very possible they're aware of de thurah's commercial (it's heavily referenced all over the world). I would consider not using the music for that reason.

If this is an agency job I would consider a directors cut with different music

If you're referring to the Acura spot, it's not the same music.

Nope I'm not I don't want to go into any flame war, but I sincerely suggest to change the music as it's the actual track from Martin De Thurah's Thomson Ad and it clearly shows the inspiration in a way that's "not good". The music is beautiful, but this becomes a little to close and I know how much this ad is used as reference all over the world.

Yes, it's the same music from the Thomson ad. I wasn't familiar with that spot and perhaps it didn't run here in the States, being a British company. For whatever reason, it doesn't appear on any of de Thurah's portfolio or rep pages I found.

I can't really speak to your other points. My only contention is the composer of that music owes much of his inspiration to Black Francis.
