I found another コダック コマアシャル Japanese commercial!

Dear Cafetalk Community,

As you know, YouTube is a treasure trove! I am finding many of my commercials from my youth. When I was a teenager, I modeled in Japan when I was 13 to 18 years old for five years. This old commerical is for Kodak film.

The unusual thing about this one is that I had to sit right next to a real tiger! There was no computer graphics back then. I was so scared that I couldn't even smile. The tiger's trainer was right off-screen but he obviously couldn't be in the shot, so he had to maintain his distance.

I almost fainted when the tiger turned around to look at me. You could see the fear all over my face. The director begged me saying, "Please smile for 15 seconds. That's how long the commercial is, okay?!" As you can see, I managed to smile for 15 seconds!

I wanted to share it with you because some of you might remember me. If not, there is brand name value worldwide! Who doesn't know Kodak? Anyway, thank you for letting me be an English tutor on this platform! I look forward to continuing to teach many of you!

Have a wonderful day!

Warmest regards,

Lady Ayame
