Golf GTI Paints with Light! – Motor Trend presents The Golf GTI Project – Captured With GoPro
With the help of Formula D pro driver and drift specialist Dai Yoshihara, the Motor Trend team sets out to pull off a one-of-a-kind photo shoot. Working at night on a huge expanse of tarmac under towering floodlights, the pro driver dances the GoPro GTI across the open course, executing carefully choreographed maneuvers and high-speed acrobatics. Working with the MT photography team, the driver practices his marks until its just right, then... the flood lights switch off! Total darkness, except for a bright light mounted atop the rear spoiler of the GTI. Our driver then repeats his perfected maneuvers in the dark, while Motor Trend Director of Photography, Brian Vance, sits high atop the action -- capturing a one-of-a-kind long exposure photo of the GTI literally painting a huge "GTI" below in arcs of light!

I need more Roadkill/Dirt Every Day instead of this lame videos
VW must be paying alot for this GTI advertisement…
A very nice photography concept, but why would you need even a single
GoPro?
Ever seen a #GTI paint with lights? Drift specialist Dai Yoshihara and the +Motor
Trend Magazine team pull off a one-of-a-kind night shoot! Golf GTI Paints
with Light! – Motor Trend presents The Golf GTI Project – Captured With
GoPro
Is that it? Lame. What did 100 GoPros do? nothing. I coud do better with
a glostick in my back yard.
Zero GTI owner will be doing exactly that. This video is as logical as a
hippo drinking a cup of tea.
Lool can that VW badge really pop open though?
No way that’s 100 cameras. I’d say like, 35 at most. And I don’t even see
the purpose of putting so many. You could’ve easily done this with 7 or 8
What is the point of this 100 GoPros thing?
Clever little backup camera
HAHA what a shit Video!!!
How much Money got thrown out the Window for that Crap?
Again, practically no use of the gopros.
Umm, so the main effect of this video is painting light with a DSLR long
exposure. Soooooo, the 100 gopros?
So much for aerodynamics..
They spent all that money how ever much it was and time for that? Things
other people see as valuable and important are different but this? GoPro
was the biggest beneficiary from this.
wtf? how much money you dumb asses threw at this project?
instead of fluidity wit music, tells the cars capability with a story, we
got this crap.
why.
This just seems like a pointless, expensive Golf commercial!
G.T.H. Go To Hell!!
1:09 one camera is turned on.
How’d you spin? Stability and Traction Control can’t be turned of, and the
electronic parking brake?
blah blah blah.. *VW paid MT* blah blah blah..
why ?
Who paid more? Go Pro or VW?
Did all that money come close to compensating for the new level of pathetic
MotorTrend has descended to?
Shame
What the fuck has happened to Motor Trend ?? I know those money whores at
/Drive have sold out to Murdoch; have these guys gone the same way ?????
With 100 GoPros I was expecting crazy Matrix style shots. I’ve seen better
footage with 5 cameras.
those 100 plus go-pro’s were completely pointless
Pls do a giveaway after using those cameras.
Wtf do the Go Pros even need to be there for – could have shot the whole
video with 3 of them
Handbrake turn with electric handbrake….. How???
A real waste of money and resources. Don’t know who thought of this but it
didn’t prove anything but VW needs a new advertising director. I know a
three year old who is available.
Golf GTI Paints with Light!
at 2:37 why does the vw logo pop out ???
You guys are a joke. This vid was awesome..
IMO a waste of time and money. I totally thought it was going to be
something different.
I liked that!
Really, that was worse than the last one.
You had the chance to draw a light penis and instead you write “GTI”??
awesome…!!!!
This was the best they could come up with? I mean, I’m not saying I’m a
genius, but damn. Do something with those cameras! Why not do a cool 360
panoramic by putting the cameras all around the car? I saw a total of,
maybe ten camera angles.
how he does that? mk7 has e-brake, he pulls on it?
Thought the video was kinda cool.
You’re all a whinging bunch of dickheads.
this with DSG? :O Are the transmission ok after this? :D
you’ve done it all wrong, you’re supposed to film stuff WITH the car, not
film the car.
A Golf will always be a Golf, just a Golf, nothing more…
No point in watching this stuff. Seriously VW what’s the point here? That’s
30 seconds of my life wasted that I will never get back.
lol .. why 100 cameras ?
dumb concept
boring driving
nothing interesting ..all that just to show a blurry text of GTI .. thats
it ?
lol ..should get nominated for dumbest video and waste of money
They should have painted a Check Engine light.
I don’t mind advertisements to be able to watch the shows I like, Roadkill
and dirt every day, but that amount of go pros is unnecessary. They claim
it helps with the cars position. You could do that with 10 cameras on the
car. Overkill for Roadkill. Haha
