Old ad agency guy here, and this commercial takes top place in my personal Hall of Fame - best parts: the apple stem bobbing up and down as they trot; the gasping for breath as they stop; and the plaintive "We ride!" - sublime. Glad to have found the :60 'secret' link from the FOTL site. Also nice to hear from those involved in the actual production -- fantastic job guys!
DreamynCali: You are so right- the riders were amazing! They had so much to contend with- costumes, terrain, heat, and hours and hours of riding. It was a priveledge to work with them. I do have to say though... the stunt riders weren't trainers and as the trainer I know what I had to put into those horses to get them to perform so well for three days. Lets not forget the kudos to the camera crew, the director, the writers- everyone- the hundred or so who worked on this production- Great Work!
Cristapetrillo... It us the stunt riders who make the horses look that way. I happen to know 2 of them... They are fantastic riders! And I love the commercial. Unique!
