This Week at Drive - FOUR Cities - TWO Countries - 12,053 Miles of Travel and Jason Priestley

Earlier this month we were doing two shoots simultaneously in Montreal and Salt Lake City. This week we are in the middle of doing FOUR different projects in FOUR different cities.

Last weekend we were pulling double duty again in both Canada and the US. In Vancouver, BC Canada we were doing the voice-over for our upcoming movie "Daytona Dream" with Jason Priestley. The movie will have a limited theatrical release followed by a few film festivals before it airs on the Discover Channel during the fourth quarter of this year.

While one team was in Vancouver, the other was on the East Coast of the United States at Lime Rock Park in Lakeville, Connecticut. We were working with the American Le Mans series and the Level Five Racing Team doing a series of videos.

The Drive team is back on the West Coast on Wednesday of this week working with the band Redline Chemistry. They have a new album coming out the middle of next month and we are filming their live performance at the world famous Whiskey A Go Go. We are also launching a new site for the band early next month to help promote the album - FYI the album is fantastic.

The week will end with another team shooting the Ferrari's at the Ferrari Challenge race at the New Jersey Motorsports Park at Millville, NJ. This is the second to the last Ferrari Challenge race this season in North America. In November Drive will be working in Spain shooting the Ferrari International Finals.

We continue to do extremely interesting work with some of the best companies and brands in the world. This week was a bit extreme but it is worth every one of the over 12,000 miles of travel.
