Even if this is not a TV ad, I'm sure that you will enjoy it. It's the making-of montage of the Omaha Beach invasion of World War II re-created for a BBC Timewatch documentary. Even if you have a low budget, if you have great skills and creativity, the sky is the limit!

It's really amazing to see the making of visual effects. Only four days for a re-creation of one of the most important day of the second World War... You're right! It's a great demonstration of the imagination's imperceptible limits.

This is a brilliant piece of work.
I would like to know for sure if someone knows? I am sure that this was longer than 4 days total. I would have a guess at 1 to 2 days planning plus costume hire 4 days on site shooting. 1 day effects shooting 1 day prop shoot. 2 pos 3 weeks post production.
