Ram in short sci-fi film

The short (4.5 minute) science fiction film “Traveler” features a Ram pickup, in what looks like a paid placement — but isn’t. In fact, Allpar contacts at FCA werent even aware of the film or the Ram’s role in it.

Simon Brown’s film prominently shows a Ram in what could have been advertising poses, but aren’t; it’s a complimentary visual portrayal. The CGI visual effects are fine; and one wonders if this is the kickoff to a full length movie or series of films.

Brown isn’t new to short films with vehicles in them. He was the computer graphics lead in the Audi TV spot “Drones” and the “Milk Run” ad for the Chevy Sonic. He has also been a special effects artist for an impressive number of feature films.
