NEW FOOTAGE and Q&A With GM Design!

Hi Guys,

My name is Stephen Gray and I am a designer at GM.

As you no doubt know already we are showing 5 vehicles at the Chicago Auto Show which are the actual props from the new Transformers Movie. There is also a full sized Bumblebee in robot form and an exclusive trailer.

If any of you who have questions for GM design, I will do my best to answer them!

There are some vids here (including the trailer):

If you get the chance you should go down to the show to check it out!

Stephen.

PS: Sideswipe is HOT.

Thanks for the info. Really appreciate your time and effort! One question. Did Michael Bay or anyone from the movie production have any say in the cars' designs? Or did you guys just say "Here they are, let's see what you can do with them"?

Brutus: We did not have a say on who was in the film! You will have to ask Michael Bay on that one!

Wolfbrother: Michael Bay did not have input on the designs, before production he got the chance to do a full studio tour of GM in North America. He picked the cars you see in the trailer (and even added one or two from his original plan based on what he saw)

Hi GM designer


Why was it denied that the Volt was a transformer?

OptimusPie: Yeah!! That would have been awesome. However it is good to keep some secrets

OptimusPie: I am not sure why it was denied. I am guessing however it may have had something to do with the film starting production before anyone had seen the Volt.
