Hey, remember that faux accident that tied up Broad Street in Red Bank for most of a day back in August?
With local government clearance, a photo crew used the intersection of Broad and West Bergen Place to stage what looked like the aftermath of a car crash.
They brought in a couple of banged-up vehicles, positioning one against the base of traffic light and the other across the intersection with fake steam coming out from under the hood.
All this for a print ad for Liberty Mutual Insurance.
Well, here’s the result, complete with some photo retouching that gives the car in the foreground the creepy melted-flesh look favored by horror films. The light pole appears to be a bit more atilt than it actually was.
Red Banker Craig Widmaier called this ad to our attention after he spotted it in the current issue of Sports Illustrated.
