<PRE>has anyone seen the advert selling a t.v when they let them couloured balls bounce down a hill that looks like it's in San Fransisco? does anyone know if they really did bounce those balls down that hill?</PRE>
This has been asked before and some have insisted that the balls are 'real'.
I however would bet my house on them being CGI or at least filmed in a studio environment and added to the street scenes later.
Very clever and beautifully done no matter what.
<PRE>thanks gary baldy. my boss just found a website all about it and they do wallpapers as well, yes very beautiful and very real. they used 250,000 buoncy balls for the ad and no cg at all im glad to hear.</PRE>
yep it is real and you'll be glad to know they blocked off all the drains in the road and then had 50 PAs scurrying around afterwards picking up all the balls from in the bushes!
There goes my house!
In a way i'm really glad it isnt CGI and that good old fashioned hard graft and artistry were involved.
Glad i dont own our house aswell!
the advert is real i have a sony shop near to were i work and it shows the making of the video it is sooooo cooool they use thousands of balls and the camera crew wear body armour and helmets
