I had the opportunity to direct a video shoot today at the McIntosh Labs facility in Binghamton, NY. For those of you unaware, McIntosh is one of the most expensive stereo and home theater brands in the world (try $200k for one of their systems!). We're doing a video shoot for a segment that will appear on a TV show called the "Word's Greatest". My alterior motive is to take all the great B-roll footage and use it for the new McIntosh website that we will be launching in September. As you can see,
the current "Mac" website does not do a particularly good job representing this luxury brand. Some sample shots are below.
Caution, photos taken with a Palm Treo - quality stinks.

The glass cutter guy. McIntosh uses a glass cutting machine (in background) to cut glass for the front faceplates. The machine in this picture ejects a stream of highly pressurized water to cut the glass. The water is ejected at such a high pressure that, if unobstructed, it would end its journey three football fields away.
