I really like how the video has been integrated into the experience. No ugly pop up menus. Also the load sequences and transitions between them are flawless. This feels more like a site to me than a banner but it's delivered in the 300x250 space (and later expanding area) well and you can imagine this running on an automotive site and attracting a lot of interaction. View the banner by clicking here. (Note: Mac users do so at your browser's peril)
Sadly I could not embed this banner due to it's complexity. When I view this in Firefox I get the English version. But I would suggest viewing in IE as you get a much sexier French women. She's the French Salma Hayek.
This made both firefox and safari browsers freeze up...

That was awesome! It's the first time I've ever seen video banners that complex actually done. Tons of content and no pop-ups. Good work!

Yes that is a unique experience.
Reminds me of the early "glory-days" of CD-Roms where everything was this sort of interactive movie.
It's effective...nice work.
