It was filmed on the front lawn of a Miami Beach estate selected only cuz of its lush lawn. The "dad" in he ad was a Pan Am pilot. Neither of us (not even a real pilot) COULD MASTER PICKING UP THE SMALL SOLDIER WITH THE COPTER'S FRONT HOOK. We broke for lunch and The crew burned up 90 minutes and a lot of batteries mastering the trick. In the ad they show my hands on the controls, but the maneuver was performed by one of the crew. I got paid $100/day for 3 days (not all filming, a lotta sitting around, and the residuals brought in another $1000 or more in the coming years. Ironically, I was a huge copter fan before being hired at age 11, and always asked my birthday present be a short $10 ride on SunLine Helicopters (Bell 47G) on Miami's Watson Island, next to the Goodyear Blimp base.

They have no copyrights and therefore no use restrictions. Either the original creator allowed it to laps or the content was created copyright free. The only catch is music. Some public domain films and television shows have music which is still in copyright ownership. Two which come to mind are "It's A Wonderful Life" movie and the “Beverly Hill Billies” TV show. Public domain content can be incorporated into new formats and then registered as the new item, an example is "Science fiction theater 2000" public domain movies but the show which includes the PD movies is has copyrights. There are several publications listing totally public domain items that can be used as reference and are recommended by the U.S. copyright office. I hope this answers the question.digitalsavanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06477530276622156784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7003448669710371317.post-55996533003060731612014-12-24T11:32:31.450-05:002014-12-24T11:32:31.450-05:00i like jimmies piano chords,they are unique.would ...i like jimmies piano chords,they are unique.would like to see some printable sheet music of his songs on this web site, his style really is exciting.I can not get enought of Durante I would also like to see the jazz sheet music. zephur33@att.net, Al Garci.
