Swimsuit videos have been filmed in a lot of places. Mostly tropical locations, with swaying palm trees, azure seas, and models frolicking in the water. This was a little too mundane for the second installment of Maxim’s Real Swimsuit series, so it was decided that this next shoot was truly going to be out of this world.

The girls were photographed and filmed in the painted desert of Arizona. Then, back in New York, we added the finishing touches to our retro-futuristic interstellar look, which can be seen in the clip above.
