    I love this ad. I saw the long version during the chelsea game on sky and I just fell into a trance watching it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    yeh it's a cool ad alright, seen the making of it - it was linked in some other thread - when i first saw the ad i said "that's rendered" ohh how that making of proved me wrong.

    WOW...Nice ad,cool tune. Brings back memories of my trip to San Francisco.
    Lovely city(if a bit dirty in places)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,048 ✭✭✭✭murphaph


    Is it not CGI at all then cremo? I just assumed that only some of the balls were real with the background being rendered with CGI, no? If not, the ad is even more impressive!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,680 ✭✭✭Skyuser


    The ' Late Show with David Letterman ' on ITV4 just made fun of the ad by gettin their own superballs n throughin them off a building. They only bounced for few seconds....they needed a hill i think

    Nope, quarter of a million bouncy balls dropped down a street. Unbelievable stuff, but yet true.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,279 ✭✭✭RobertFoster


    I wonder what happened the frog.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,872 ✭✭✭segadreamcast


    Amazing ad. Visually stunning.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,048 ✭✭✭✭murphaph


    Amazing that it's not CGI-we're all so used to it nowadays that it surprises us to hear such an ad is al real! Great stuff. It's actually a very simple ad, but the detail of the frog and the multicoloured ball coupled with the music are what make it so special.

    That 180 second clip is not the one shown on TV, it's much longer, sure 180 seconds is an entire ad break isn't it?

    the song is a cover and it's one of them rare occasions where i like the cover version better.

    the orignal is... The Knife - Heartbeats
