Philips Carousel Commercial is a Freeze-Frame Police Shootout





Philips has a new super-widescreen television coming out that is in true cinema proportions. This 'freeze-frame' film is their advertisement for it. It's a beautifully produced police shootout with a gang of clowns at a hospital. It's got obvious Joker overtones and is just so damn creepy and weird. Adam Berg is the filmmaker. As I watch it I wonder how they did it. You can go over to an interactive version and move through the film slowly. The techniques used become more clear that way. It's really one giant stitched-together image with some CG inserts. It really works.

Hey, your runescape gold posts have inspired me! - I love the way you directly get to the point, and then work runescape money outwards. I’ve been trying to do figure out what I want to say about ,that would allow me to do exactly the same thing.
