I like the song, it reminds me of Sesame Street. Today's banner is brought to you by the good people at Canon and the letter W.

It's that popcorn song ain't it? But 'mexicanized'. Nice eye candy

So, someone produced a great video and the intern just imported it to flash. Wow! Tough job.

Of course result is quite cool, but is just a TV ad formated to fit the banner. Leaves us thinking about the future of web ads...

Isn't that the point. This is the future of web ads!

It works even better online than it would as TVC.

It's not a TV ad. We produced it specifically for the web. There's a million-and-one versions running across Europe. It's not going on TV, unfortunately, but that *would* be nice, eh? There's a lightweight vector animated version too.

BTW: The music is 'Popcorn', as Ray rightly points out. It's a cover by Herb Alpert. Available from iTunes!

The intern Basa as you call them, was in fact me, mrpatel®, a freelancer with 6 years experience - who had to transform a 2 mb affer effects mpu commercial to 20k (in 3 days) and localise to 20 different formats in a month.
Tough job?

Yeah, mr patel, don't forget the rest of the team who localised it to all those different formats too! peace and love.

Peace and love
