CGI.
reckon they asked the kids to try and do it as best they can to the tune (giving the right kind of facial expressions, then improve it with CGI.

she scares me... like properly scares me

The kids did the basic work...

And then CGI was proberably used to "amplify" their facial expressions.... That would be the safest way of doing it..


Personally I would have used an electric prod.... but then im cruel!

Anyone else find that ad just plain weird and a bit freaky?

love the tune though though i think 'drop that boom' by freestylers was a better remix of it

Tee-hee..... I think its great!
One of my sons and I can both 'do the eyebrows'

I think the kids do a series of 'eyebrows', then it is speeded up/slowed down/repeated during editing to the tune.....

IMHO.... of course!

But the fact that you remember it has succeeded in it's objective...

Since Cadbury's had that really big scare with salmonella infections in chocolate bars a few years ago they lost massive sales and public confidence.

Displacing negative feelings with good one's always works - you cant feel negative about something when you're laughing! Hence the massive amounts they are spending on their adverts of late... it's a marvellous marketing campaign and their sales are increasing accordingly....

Exactly - If an advert is to work then People have to talk about it - Even if it is "I don't get the gorrilla playing drums.."

The advertising company went out on a lim and floated some wired idea's that some equally wierd CEO/Director liked. But hell it's one hell of a campaign.

I guess we have to ask - What next??





Scot's do it better in Kilts.

More seriously it was designed to go 'viral' and has worked well at that, it's gone around the web and youtube is stuffed full people arsing around with it and the idea. Every time we pass it on via email or on a forum it infects some more and goes around again.

apparently it was done with computer aided stop gap animation, thats why every individual expression looks fairly natural its just the combination of them in such a short space of time thats impossible!
