Lexus “Slice” was Directed By Anonymous Content’s Christian Loubeck for Team One Advertising.
We shot this spot through the night in Santa Paula ,California, using 130 feet of Motion Control track with a 20 ft Arm to complete an almost 180 degree camera move around the sliced vehicle. The Programming took 6 hours and we almost didn’t get the hero Sky Pass.
The Car Slices were Mounted on tracks and pulled apart by human power. Christian took his inspiration from the work of the American Photographic Artist Gregory Crewdson.

EA Sports “You” was Directed By RSA USA’s Samuel Bayer for Wieden+Kennedy Portland.
We shot this spot at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. Sam Employed 5 different Camera’s
including a Hand Cranked Bolex to capture this spot. Huge Soap Snow Machines, 200 extras and , well Sam Bayer .
I also Finished this spot in Flame.

So, Tarsem goes to China to shoot a series of Nike spots Via Wieden+Kennedy. Liu Xiang clears 3 hurdles before being whisked away by his handlers. After much furious editing it was deemed that more Footage was needed. I got to go to China for 3 Days, for the subsequent Re Shoot, armed with a Canon D5. This time Tarsem brought a Body Double , a Phantom Camera and 500 extras. Wrangling the Extras was Chaos. Tarsem was not always impressed. The Spot, however, came out looking great.
