Hondamentalism
You hear people talking about advertising, mentioning things like big budget shoots in South America with loads of spare time hanging out on the beach. This is clearly a lie! The reality tends to be quite different.
We've been on a road trip around the UK meeting Hondamentalists, to make short films about the different sides of Hondamentalism for the Honda website. First Southampton, then Sussex, then Yeovil, after that Swindon...
Welcome to Yeovil
Overnights at the Travel Lodge, breakfast at the Little Chef and service station sandwiches for lunch in the car on our way to the next location.

It's tiring being an advertising globetrotter! We saw some weird things and met loads of interesting people

And some true Hondamentalists. It's good to be back sipping frappuccinos in metropolitan London again. Anyway have a look at the films, featuring: Simon and Chris with their passion for racing, on lawnmowers. Below are some links to others: Shelley Jory demonstrating her determination as a powerboat racer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMsWfNX_G0M The young Swindon engineers race team and their attention to detail. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iwm6kmSXNac Simon Saunders, founder of the Ariel Atom, and his different approach to building a race car.











Fantastic stuff. Love the editing.

I love the film. It captures something beautiful, playful and something quite primal about what racing means for us as human beings. Brilliant.
