Good god! Is Ben alright?
We made sure Ben wore a hard hat :) under no circumstances should one try this themselves, though. As great as the Alexa is, it won't stop you being injured.
Why was a Red camera used to shoot an Alexa ad?
Love your ad!
But that intro/outro song.. can't get it out of my head, what is it called? I am pretty sure I have heard it somewhere else before.
So why is one of the menu items titled "WTF"?
pause between 41" and 43" to see.
i like the red battery Pack on the alexa...
@Ken: The song is called "Holiday for Strings" - it's an old composition.
@me: We put that in there to see who was paying attention :) Fact is though you can name the presets anything you like.
@marco: Arri doesn't make their own batteries, so they have to come from somewhere!
Nice one boys! :). Seems even the "The Red Guys" are defecting to the German system!
haha!
Classic!
Promoting the Alexa buy shooting it on the RED. :-)
Rob Fraser,
Holiday for Strings from 1941 was rearranged by David Rose for use as the theme to the Red Skelton Hour that aired from 1951 tp 1971. Now the scary part. After hearing it, I got it first time after 40 years off the air. I immediately googled "Red Skelton theme" nd there it was. God have mercy on this poor wretched soul. Funny how things will stick in a kid's brain.
The theme song included the line, "David Rose and his orchestra" an audio credit for his part in the show.
