Switchback — auto commercial
Client Studio LyricLocation Blue Ridge Parkway, NCYear 2025
Summary
Aerial second unit for a national auto commercial — three days on the Blue Ridge Parkway, working alongside the principal DP and editor.
Brief
Studio Lyric needed aerial coverage that integrated cleanly with the ground unit's footage — same colour pipeline, same motion grammar, deliverable in a format their colourist could use without re-grading.
Approach
Three days on the Parkway, one weather hold, no ego. Camera profile pre-matched to the principal unit. Every shot pre-storyboarded with the DP.
Outcome
All aerial coverage made the final cut. The colourist sent a thank-you email — possibly a first.
