Why hello there, incredibly well made ad for Ubisoft’s ‘Your Shape’. 

This is the sort of thing that you wish you had directed or at least worked on— the vfx/live action mix, including the infographics, are more or less perfect. Mixed with the music, the team behind this has some good stuff to add to their portfolios.

I think I would rank this “Video Game Movie Trailer” my #1 favourite Mega64 video. A tough call to make, but this one was the best production quality they’d ever achieved at the time, showed that they had chops beyond random skits (I’ve only seen one episode of their show, the first of “Version 2”, and did not enjoy it at all), and, well, I won’t ruin it. 

Just watch the video and enjoy.

Uh oh. I sense a lot of my time being spent here: the ‘fantasy football’ for film geeks, FlickPicks. I fancy myself a pretty good predictor of box office results, but now I can see if I really do have the right stuff - and get obsessed in the process. I’ve made my picks for this week and have already grown sympathetic with the local multiplex. You know, the one that doesn’t play the films you want to see when the fall season rolls around. I just denied Men Who Stare at Goats any screens at all, and wish I had enough points to give Twilight an extra. Money talks, and the better films just don’t seem to earn it (in cinemas). If you ever complain about the ‘business’ side of show business, you have to sign up for this site— your own greed may surprise you. And if you feel up to it, challenge me. My cinema is called ‘The Lounge’, but I’ll warn you: you’ll probably end up down 25 points ;)
