Last year, Emirates exposed a video ad in which a "flight attendant" stood on the tip of the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building, to attract more passengers to Emirates flights. After the advertisement was released, it caused a huge sensation at the time.
And now Emirates has gone a step further — and pulled out their signature A380 as a backdrop, in the same frame as a flight attendant. The Dubai-based airline once again filmed a stuntman standing at the top of the Burj Khalifa. An A380 painted with the words "Dubai EXPO" or Expo 2020 flew through the air, and the scene was very shocking!
This time a skydiving stuntman stands at the top of the Burj Khalifa, dressed in an Emirates uniform, holding a tablet that reads: "I'm still here". Of course, she hasn't been standing here since the last commercial shoot. Instead, he climbed back up the spire to shoot a new commercial. Now this classic scene has reappeared.
Emirates' female stunt "flight attendant" stood at the spire of the world's tallest building, holding a card in her hand that read: "Friends, it's finally here." At this point, the camera turned and an Emirates Airbus A380 flew slowly in the distance. Flying behind our heroine, the whole picture is impressive.
Located in Dubai, united Arab Emirates, the burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world, with 169 floors and a cost of UP TO $1.5 billion, or about 9.52 billion yuan.
The chief architect of burj Khalifa is Adrien Smith of SOM Architects in Chicago. The main contractor is South Korea's Samsung C&T. The Burj Khalifa is built using a unique approach to super-tall buildings, which can be built on one floor every three days. The landscape part of the building was designed by SWA in the United States, and the civil construction was contracted by Jiangsu Nantong Liujian Group Company in China. The curtain wall was contracted by Hong Kong Far East, Shanghai Lijin and Shaanxi Hengyuan. It can be said that there are many Chinese elements.
The commercial appears to have been filmed on October 13 and 14. In August last year, the paint machine had not yet put on the "new clothes" of the World Expo. Emirates' latest announcement shows that the Expo paint machine will fly at a low altitude in Dubai.
Good shots are not achieved overnight, but are the common result of "time, place, people". While shooting at low altitude, the Airbus A380, registered A6-EEU, flew over Dubai for about 3 hours and made several circles. The A380 flew over The Palm Jumeirah, the site of Expo 2020, and finally landed at Dubai World Central Airport.
On October 14, 2021, the plane also flew around the Burj Khalifa seven times. The flight altitude is about 2750 feet, which is about 838 meters. The platform on which the Emirates "flight attendant" is located is about 830 meters high. So we see the shocking scene of the same frame at the beginning.
