The Making of "The Evolution of the Water Bottle"

Posted on February 14, 2012 by Natalie Slater

A few weeks ago we teased you guys about a video we'd just wrapped - 'The Evolution of the Water Bottle'. We'd spent that entire Saturday setting up a fake crime scene in Katya's kitchen and photographing Natalie's wide range of emotions (murderous, repentant, disgusted).

Natalie's husband Tony (member of the Greyslater patented Panel of Dudes) took the kids for the day and we had lots of fun Googling "how to make fake blood" while our creative and enthusiastic friend Matt Lewis (also on the Panel of Dudes) snapped photos.

Next, Katya mercifully Photoshopped the bags from underneath our eyes and made the blood look more bloody, and Matt stayed up past his bedtime editing everything together with some stellar voiceover work. Natalie stayed home and baked whoopie pies. Mmm...whoopie pies.

A few weeks, a couple of thrifted 80's business suits, a bloody skull and one unfortunate goat later and here we are - showing you our very first video! We hope you learn something about reusable water bottles (mainly that the ones we carry are the coolest) and that you like it so much you share it with your friends! Enjoy!
