This is a commercial for the “Medienprojekt Wuppertal”, where youths can get access to filming equipment and editing workstations.

Wuppertal 2050

For the closeup shots, the car was filmed in front of a bluescreen, the background and windshield were done in post. For the flight sequences, a 3d replica of the car was used. The background and police cars are 3d.

Some making-of photo galleries:

Too bad, that this was done before the challenge was announced.
