Hey

Needing some help, fellow surfers. I'm trying to find some decent (high) quality movies of Infiniti's new "Design Begins With A Line" TV ad spots. They were aired during the Olympics like a million times, and they're the ones that have the guy painting red lines with a mop/brush on the floor.

I can't find jack crap, so I was hoping some of you could see if you could hunt them down.

Thanks!

Like this one?

I found it on the infiniti site under the specific cars. Unfortunately, that link goes to their 'high' quality clip.

Yeah, that's the one -- but hear how the audio is all crapped-out? I'm needing to find the audio as pristine as possible.

Isn't that the commercial that completely ripped off a few scenes from the movie "Hero"?

I need to broadcast it through a PA system. The compression makes it sound like crap when it gets amplified.

You might want to try adcritic.com if you haven't yet. I think you gotta pay to get an account these days, but they have a ton of ads online.

A very nice car, but out of my price range.

thats what i was getting at. although, big diff btw a real PA, say in a large venue, and a PA at a presentation or soemthing. if it's the latter there a lot that could be done to make it acceptable.

beyond that, even the adcritic ones will have the **** compressed out of them. i think they have some forums over there tho, check it out since odds are somebody will have Tivo'd it. Or call your local network affiliate, if its a local ad buy, which depends on your market, then the traffic coordinator would easily be able to tell you when it'll be coming up in the rotation. Then you can tape it. Thats your best bet, has saved me a time or three.
