Seems like someone spent too much money on computer graphic
for no good reason.

A computer made the tires defy gravity.

NO CG involved at all..it's all live action footage...

Full story behind it over at Daily Telegraph ....

Also check some of the obvious influences...

Jean Tinguely - ulpt_tinguely_e.htm

and
"der Lauf der Dinge" ( the way things go). ( at
http://www.tcfilm.ch/pop_lauf1e.htm ) ...

not as original as people are saying...(but still bloody
excelent all the same..)...

Answer to the tyre q from someone who knows...

"The tyres had lead weights placed inside, so that they
would roll uphill for long enough to touch the next one. We
know some people who worked on this, and there was
definitely no CG involved. There is a single splice between
2 takes, but I don't know where it is."

BTW.."the way thing go" is from 1987...quite a famous
piece...

i read that it's all live and that it took over 600 takes to
get it right.

I like the Sprite ad with the little goblin-thing.
Brothomstates' 'Adozenaday' is the music.

correct me if i'm wrong but that cunt in the sprite advert
is the same as that cunt in the lynx advert. That fucking
advert has spawned a monster - millions of twats in clubs up
and down the country thinking that they're the coolest guys
in the world by copying that dance. I had the displeasure of
witnessing it recently and it was one of the most
cringworthy moments of my life.

Agreed, it's an ace ad. I just stood silent with a cup of
tea in my hand when I first saw that and said out aloud,
despite no-one else being in the room, "What a fucking cool
ad!"

Bill Hicks - hahaha, I've been fearing such mindless copying
by fucking morons. Luckily I haven't seen anyone actually
dance like that yet. Still recovering from the
'Whazzaaaaaap!' campagn, myself...

hmm yeah one of my mates insists that he has memorised the
dance and for his birthday we all 'have to go to fabric so
he can show us' lol. can't wait!

i prefered "the way things go"

less clinical, and i liked the way it ended up at the start
again as if in an infinite loop
