TRANSLOGIC Films 100th Episode


TRANSLOGIC, the transportation technology video series featured on AOL Autos and produced by AOL Studios, has reached a monumental milestone this week. On Monday, April 23rd, TRANSLOGIC published their 100th episode! It has been over two years since the first episode debuted on April 3, 2010, which featured a visit to Tesla Motors in Silicon Valley.

With credits including Telly Awards in the automotive, cinematography and video editing categories, TRANSLOGIC's crew has led the series through 100 episodes filmed in 6 different countries--a major accomplishment for a web-only video series. Together they've covered everything from electric cars to jetpacks to walking robots.

The show's Creator and Executive Producer Adam Morath, Director Luke Wahl, Host Bradley Hasemeyer, and Director of Photography Tomi Skarica were all on hand for the 100th episode, shot at Walt Disney World Speedway in Orlando, FL. We look forward to another 100 episodes!
