ESPN Master Commercial Link on YouTube

Hi Everyone,

Got an email from ESPN today with a link to the commercial that we shot for The Masters. I would love to see it in High Def and is was originally shot. The only bee in the commercial is one of my girls. It's an awesome feeling being part of a commercial like this. I am sure I'll never forget it.

Hope you all enjoy it!

Excellent. I have to ask- how is your bee at the masters in Augusta when your in S.C.? Are you luck enough to have hives at Augusta! I also thought Augusta didn't permit women .members!

alright, i just saw the other thread and it answers my questions. I live near Pine Valley, the wolrd best course according to golf digest and you cant get near it, ever. They will come out w/ guns and escort you awy from the area. Lucky you!!!!! I love watching the masters.

Konasdad,

It was a real hoot to be involved in the commercial. Got to see the inside scoop on how ESPN works.

Cool Video. How much stills Photography do you do Scott or is it all Video ???

Steve,

I have a cheap Nikon digital that needs to be replace cuz it's been dropped a couple of times and has propolis on the lens closure so I have to force it open. I'm no pro at all. There was a crew of ten that did the whole shot and it took me about 12 hours total from start to finish to complete the day. It took about 2 hours to get the shot they wanted. I was only what "Dallas" refers to as "The Expert Bee Handler". Of course I'm not but I played one for a few hours. Hey it paid me $500 buck. I just think is really cool that millions of people are going to see my bee. MY BEE!

People from all over the world will see one of my Girls? CRAZY

Thats pretty cool on getting paid like that. I got a Nikon too. my wife calls it my baby. i broke it a year ago and nearly cried. its a pretty good camera and i pretty much take it everywhere.
