Yesterday and today during the half time of champions league games I saw the new Sony Bravia advert "Paint". I was wondering...how was it done? Directed by Jonathan Glazer it took 10 days and 250 people to film and five days and 60 people to clean up. via coolhunting / sony

Very lovely: but the location is a pretty sad indictment of social housing and architects, yes?
at least THAT social housing and THOSE architects. and the governmental body and social system at large that decided that this was all people needed to live...
Yes, of course, Steven. Not all "social housing" is terrible. But I imagine most people watching that commercial will think that's typical.
I found the image of paint raining down on the abandoned playground just heartbreaking and futile and sad. And so much material energy reduced to a stage set for a cool video.
Maybe they should have shot it at the Thermal Baths, like that rap video!
^nice comment Steven...I had the same thought, lb, but Steven's point reflects what we recently saw in Barcelona - good social housing with great public amenities (i think the next entry in my Barcelona blog will be of our first visit to this area...).
cool video Ludwig, thanks for the link.
The first video of the "youtube du jour" thread is of the filming.
