“Petrol” is a new film from the makers of the best beer ad ever, Thirsty For Beer (2010). That micro short now has 35 million views after 15 years of streaming on YouTube, so we hope our loyal fans can help "Petrol" reach similar milestones. Let it burn! Putting out fire with gasoline!

Music: "From Dusk" and "Lonely Charades" by Andres Cantu

Camera: Panavised Sony HDW-F900/3 (from 1999)

The legendary F900 shot movies such as Avatar, Sin City, Collateral, Miami Vice and many others, even in a world of 4K, 8K and 12K + cinema and mirrorless cameras this vintage 25 year old camera is still king. What do you think? Can this CineAlta legend, originally made in 1999 for the film "Star Wars Episode II Attack of the Clones" by director George Lucas, still perform at an elite and cinematic level? Is it still relevant in 2024?

This video, like our blockbuster "Thirsty For Beer" takes inspiration from director Robert Rodriguez, though unlike our earlier film, this one doesn't feature the soundtrack "After Dark" by Tito and Tarantula from “From Dusk Till Dawn”, it features the theme from “Planet Terror”. We love B-grade.
