I had a good day yesterday with Poppy.  I have never seen a film, well a commercial, being made.  I was in a warehouse along the Bath Road from 7.30 until about 16.00.  First breakfast! This was from a special catering wagon. There was everything from , eggs, sausages, bacon, toast, tomatoes etc. You just said what you want, and the lady put it on a plate for you. Then into a double decker bus which had been converted to seat and tables. A bit like on a train!

Then they set up the filming equipment and started.

There were two other cars as well as Poppy and a horse drawn carriage. A vintage Bentley, a Mustang, and Poppy.    They must have taken at least 20 shots of each car, with a girl getting out of it and walking forward towards the camera.  Then a few of her getting out of the carriage.

It is for a BT commercial. I gather it has been a kind of wedding preparation story, with other commercials been of her sorting out the wedding flowers, then the wedding dress, and this time it is for the cars!  So I understand when it comes on the box, viewers vote what she will do. In this case what car she will use!!! I will let you know when I find out when the ad is on, so you can vote for Poppy!!!!. I understand it is also on Utbe, so I will let you have the site address, that is as soon as I know myself!!

The whole day I found very interesting.

In the far corner of the warehouse, I watched during the day, a complete bridal shop being created. From nothing in the morning until just before  left, the whole 'shop' finished.I took a few photos of it as it progressed during the day!  I will send those photos another time!

I have attached a few photos that I have reduced in size so they should send OK. Let me know what you think?!!?

Enjoy every day

Peter
