This spot was inspired by the Colombian up-mountain gravel cycling movement known as Los Escarabajos (“The Scarabs”), an enduring symbol of resilience, which has grown in popularity among Latin athletic communities around the world.
Something that’s hard to appreciate in 30 seconds is how tiring the physical demands of cycling up and down mountains for two days actually are. Take after take, hour after hour, never complaining, never asking to pause filming to recover, even when soaked in sweat and out of breath — the whole cast remained unshakable and positive. THANK YOU Gilberto, Ramon, Chonzie, Tara, Carlos, Matt and Jaimes. Especially amid the shoot’s many technical complexities, you kept my spirits lifted and made our jobs easy.
Special shout out to
@mikeypackage for the stunning color work and
@loganfpv for the ace drone bending!!
Also, when I heard there was arm car team who transformed into a drone team at the flip of a button, with the drone kit literally popping out of the hood, I was admittedly somewhat skeptical. Car shoots allow for such a minuscule margin of error that we generally seek out highly specialized talent in all departments because a single technician can grind the big expensive party to a halt. In my infinite ignorance I couldn’t imagine the chimeric multi-expertise that is
@bu66a and the whole Motion State team. You guys were rockstars and our anchor for four long days. God bless you.
