I am considering of having a commercial filmed. And since I live here, I will consider the local film industry.
Actually, more than a typical 20 sec. TV commercial, this will be more like a 3 to 5 min. introduction "movie" about the person's live behind a food product.

I have no ties to the Dominican Film industry, so if some one here has, I would appreciate the introductions here or by PM.

Just please, NO "my amigo" who owns a video camera and who's daughter can "act real good" kind of contact. ;)

Thanks! ... J-D.

Look at Dominican TV Channels. Anything professionally filmed and edited? NO. So do you really want your commercial to be filmed here? :)

Actually plenty of Dominican TV ads have won multiple INTERNATIONAL awards!

Quality is conservatively related to $$$ spend on creating them. The cheaper the funds, the cheesier the end product.

I just LOVE the Cap Cana beach run..... and how 'bout that Pino Colado request at the end

They ran the F1 car (after flying it in) down the combed beach at Cap Cana and on the SD Malecon..
he had maybe 2-3-4 days... the car has a life/schedule.... do it or die

All RD talent/skill/ crew..... it is a strong industry

What about a race in SD... not so long ago Toronto thought it impossible...
Monte Carlo ain't no picnic
