The Commercial was shot in two days in and around the town of Hermanus (about 125 KM / 78 Miles) outside of Cape Town. The challenge for this commercial was casting. We needed three generations of the triplet brothers (thank goodness they did not have to be identical triplets, then we really would have had a job on our hands).
But otherwise for the most part the commercial was pretty uneventful except for the amount of work we had to do in two days. Oh there was one little thing that happened. In the scene where the little boy runs up to look at his eggs we had trained chickens that he had to run through time and time again. They were so relaxed that one of them laid an egg on set between takes. (I heard somewhere that nervous chickens don't lay - I may be wrong...)
Here's one of the storyboards for the shoot - its nice to be able to work with such well planned and imagined material:
