Sony Commercial

| 6 Comments

If you have high speed internet, this is worth seeing. It will take a minute or two to download. It is an extended Sony Bravia commercial. To demonstrate their high-resolution imagery, 250,000 brightly-colored rubber balls were released to bounce down a street of San Francisco. It is set to music and I think it is such a neat concept.

Well, I waited and I waited. I listened to the entire song (nice) and then I waited some more. The little button reached the end of the track. Silence and nothing moving. I waited some more and then I backed out. It told me I was connected, but . . .

When It's finished loading (There's a progress bar), you press the little "Play" button in the lower left part of the movie screen.

Who knew? I'll try it again later. Thanks.

I'm done. Nothing happened. I must not have the high speed what what what although I believe it told me it was a go.

Aunt Ginnie I had the same problem. I had to go to the sony website and then load qicktime from there, then it played. Very cool - but the clean-up must have been horrible.

There is a "how they did it" web page at the Sony site if you're interested although I don't know if they mention the cleanup. How do you do that? Hire 250 people and make them pick up 1000 balls each?
