Do you recognize the model? I couldn't, but maybe it is a 'generic' design they put together. They really 'boosted' (no pun intended) the smoke output effects on liftoff. But, overall a good spot.

Yeah, not bad at all.

Interesting launch controller with the connections made by terminal block and the big power resistor on the top of the lid of the box.

In stop motion it looks like two motors going.

I really hate all the quick cuts in modern videos and commercials. Makes me think of the BlipVerts in Max Headroom. It was bad enough when my editing teacher at j-school told us to never have a shot longer than five seconds. I kinda agreed, but some of that spot were sub-second shots.

Yep. Too long and you see all the flaws. Too short and you dang near induce seizures. What I hate is that quick cuts and camera shake that's become a staple in regular tv shows. The BSG reboot was so bad, I couldn't bear to watch it after the Tricia Helfer eye candy wore off a little. Quick cuts are still here in force, but at least camera shake is not so prevalent anymore.

Cool view of the rocket flying by from above. Looks like maybe from a drone.
