I don't watch TV much, so this might be old hat, but this is a fantastic commercial.

If it is by the way its one of the most beautiful adverts i have ever seen.
And the music is amazing as well

Jose Gonzales - Heartbeats

a cover of the Knife

Actually, the whole commercial is inspired by the Knife's video for that song

Gives me a loopback to the original page. Might be able to work some mojo to see it (it's the extended one that you want).

cheers for trying - didn't work though - downloads as an htm file even when i use my little tricks for getting around that referral problem.

Downloading the new version of Quicktime fixed the problem.

*uninstalls after watching*

Quality ^_^

It's interesting. Just this morning in my Survey of the Visual Arts class my professor was commenting on how photography doesn't capture people's attention nearly as much as video does now. Commercials, movies, TV shows, etc. are where people look now.

This ad is a good representation of art in advertisement. Quite extraordinary.

BTW, check out the "Behind the scenes" section for a few quick clips on the making of the advert.

wow, i thought it was done with CGI

Post by **Transient** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 8:27 pm

It's pretty impressive considering they had only 2 days and one take for the majority of the commercial.

amazing....collecting 250.000 superballs to dump it in one setting on a San Francisco street without breaking any windows.
