Remember this car commercial

[Jared]

I thought maybe you lovely people could help me find a commercial I remember from a couple years ago. I remember people freaking out about it at the time.

A car (SUv I believe) is driving out in the country. The screen is divided into 4 parts. In each part of the screen, the environment is radically different --snow, desert, mud--and the sections rotate around the screen while keeping the car seemlessly driving through the 4 environments at one.

Anyone have any idea what the car or ad company was? The ad was amazing.

I guess that's a no. Well it was a magnificent commercial to learn from, if you ever run across it.

I remember it. A 3D SUV and camera mapping would do it.

Yup. That is exactly what I was going to say. Judging by your description, now way in heck that car was real.

 

[Jared]

Probably. That is one of the reasons I was hoping to find it again, to see if it still looks good to my eyes. Do you remember what make the car was?

That is a great commercial in general but would have been perfect if they didn't use CGI in some areas (like the tire part)

They didn't. I remember seeing a "making of" on this commercial that showed the entire process. I agree, the tire part looks off... but it's not. I think it's balanced so perfectly that it does in fact give enough momentum to send the last tire to the edge...
