GE Transportation TV spot getting lots of play

July 22nd, 2009 joel

At least on the TV shows I’m watching, I’m seeing a commercial for GE Transportation repeatedly these days.  The spot, shot at the Erie Works and features the song from Top Gun “Take My Breath Away,” was produced by BBDO well over two years ago.

Here’s the long version along with a “making-of” documentary of the spot.

    Loved the documentary…a peek inside of a place most outsiders in the Erie area have never seen.

    The spot? Meh…pretty hokey in my opinion…but if it can sell some locomotives somewhere, play it!
