Doritos-Not just for the Living
This 30 second commercial was entered into Doritos Crash The Super Bowl Contest 2014
Pre-production
There were two revisions of the script before production began and one revision on the set before shooting. The concept on all the scripts was based on the TV series “The Walking Dead’. The location of the shoot was at a peach packing warehouse. We had enough time to shoot a test reel, and create story boards for the project.
Production
Crew call was 6am in the morning. I was happy for the big turnout of extras. Makeup was provided by three makeup artists who did an excellent job creating zombies. During the shoot, we employed a jib as well as a Movi stabilizing rig. The main camera used on set was a Canon 7D with zeiss lenses. We also used a Canon c100 for tracking and moving shots.
Post Production
The commercial was edited in record time. Music was provided from the Doritos Crash the Super Bowl contest website.
