Create a movie commercial to sell your vitara

IF YOU THOUGHT YOU WOULD NEVER BUY AN AUTO OF 96, WAIT FOR YOU TO SEE THIS COMMERCIAL. NOW 2 MILLION PEOPLE WANT TO BUY IT.

For most of us, selling a used car usually involves placing an ad on a popular website or in the corresponding section of a newspaper. But when Eugene Romanovsky wanted to sell his old SUV, he wanted to do so by creating the most spectacular announcement for his Suzuki Vitara of ’96.

Using his knowledge of visual effects, this Latvian resident in Israel created a 2-minute epic video showing everything his reliable car can (and can not) do. From driving underwater to visiting the space, to a safari with dinosaurs and going out in Mad Max … it’s no surprise that this video has been seen more than 2 million times since it was uploaded to YouTube recently. Here you can see it. Prepare popcorn!

“My best friend”. This is how he presents his truck at the beginning of the video, titled “#BuyMyVitara (Buy My Vitara)”. He also says that he has had it for ten years, which could devalue it, since it means that he had other owners before.

The clip combines a description of the characteristics of the vehicle with images that show it in natural environments, in which it emphasizes its all-terrain power. So far it seems to be a professional commercial made by the manufacturer.

But the video becomes more interesting when, after walking at full speed between leopards and other wild animals, the Vitara appears between dinosaurs and sharks (yes, it can apparently become a submarine). The final touch is given when it becomes a rocket and flies to the Moon.

Eugene Romanovsky acknowledges at the end of the video that not all of these scenes are real, but he uses them to his advantage: “That explains why the truck is in such good condition,” he says. It does not clarify the value for which it is offered, but invites interested parties to contact each other through Facebook.

The owner is not an improvised. He works as a special effects supervisor at the Gravity animation studio, based in Tel Aviv, Israel.
