It’s football season. So what better way to show your team spirit than with a tricked out truck to haul your squad’s gear? That’s what Navistar is doing to show their support for West Point cadets both on the field and in the field.

The Black Knights’ new ride is the star of a short promotional video shown at the school’s home football games. Manning produced the 30-second piece to generate excitement for the team, cadets and their fans.

Even though they’ve lost their first three home games so far, at least their gear arrived in style!

Question: How do you fit two 2-ton trucks into one 13 foot high studio?

Answer: Very carefully.

We recently did an HD shoot at Resolution Digital Studios for Navistar. After some hand wringing and lots of measuring, the trucks were in and ready for their close-up.
