Wild horses & Jules Verne

This spot for 2fm plays with the old movie technique of rear projection, showing the star broadcasters messing around in front of projected backgrounds in costume, before ‘coming together’ around a recording desk in a giant radio studio. A horse riding simulator was used to show Hector on his trusty steed (which went briefly, but disturbingly out of control), while a real hot air balloon basket was suspended from soundstage trusses to transport Colm Hayes into a Jules Verne fantasy (matte painting by Piranha Bar’s Ciaran Brennan). A vintage motorbike and convertible MG car completed the main props list, leaving everything else to be generated digitally after extracting all the action from green screen.
