About This Video

"Biker" was made using real bikers! These were great guys, good to work with, and nobody had to be taught how to ride -- they were just being themselves. This added an authenticity and texture to the spot that would've been a challenge otherwise. The area used to shoot this spot may look bigger than it is, as it was primarily filmed in a store parking lot. The neighbors were probably a little surprised to look out their windows and see that many bikers, since the first shot needed a lot of them!

0	Paula Hunt 13 days ago from Carrollton, TX FBL, you are the "thousands points of light". Thank you for depicting people of all races, ethnicites and nationalities. Your spots and website illustrate the point that good people come in all colors and religions and that we all have a lot more in common than that which makes us different.

3	Jan A about 1 year ago from Glendale AZ There is no doubt that responding to any negative actions with love and kindness is the right move. Unfortunately,in most cases, the mouth is quicker than the mind
