Unfortunately this is a great example of sloppy roto & comp work. I think though people's reactions are mostly based on the fact that this concept & animation style is a ripoff of the motiontheory reebook spot. And the way banks talks in the press release about it as if it was original and a part of him. Blah, blah. And you see it when it’s intentional and when not.

Which I think it does, and I'm sure he client thinks it does, and I'm sure the public will as well. And as far as that part with the pole with disconected leg, I'm almost positive that was intentional... The bombay saphire spot did that kind of thing all the time (and you cant deny the similarity with the styles). Also, he kicks that pole because its the arm on the turntable... watch it again, i didnt see it the first time eather.

When he's sitting on the bench, they did a very poor job compositing him in. There is also a very rough edit when he walks behind the pole. If you scroll through it frame-by-frame, you can see the poor job they did in lining up the footage. I mean, it's not horrible. But it's not professional. Many elements seem very amateur.

Remember 10 other companies like stardust pitched on this job. This site is a perfect forum for jealous losers to throw jabs. you all know who you are. The other suckers are just motha-fuckers who couldnt get on the design team at Kinkos. I agree. Remember 10 other companies like stardust pitched on this job.

Its not bad at all lets be honest. I think people love hating on stuff and just because everyone is hating it feels safe to do so without being roasted. I have seen stupid praise over stuff half as good here on this little blog. i know more than half the people commenting are impressed deep inside... so please stop being gay and fake and be honest. THA-DON. ahhh, common now… you are all tearing this thing up so much, jeez.

"I really see a lot of myself in these pieces" Must have been a terrible day getting into office and know everyone knows how poorly directed & executed this was. The stardust crew probably read all these comments here too. Oh man, that Jake Banks has his head up his ass it seems. “I really see a lot of myself in these pieces”
