  • @CaptainMug
    @CaptainMug 10 лет назад +17

    I was always amazed at those crowds in sport stadiums that hold up signs to spell or to visualize things, when I saw the video I knew that had to be an inspiration. Very smart to play it at half-speed, I kinda noticed it when watching the video since it was kinda... it stuttered a little, but at the big scenes you couldn't tell a thing. Amazing!

      This is how you do great advertisement. They used something as part of an "ad", but it still works as an art piece on its own merit. They didn't compromise their integrity, and it wholly adds to the experience.

    4 questions.
    1) How the FREAK did they do that cool thing at the end when they made the images with the umbrellas?
    2)Who else has a HUMONGOUS crush on Damian?
    3)Where did they even get that many "Future Chairs" from? Was this a sponsored video or what?
    4)Where the HELL did they get that much space to make those really big images at the end with the army of girls with different colored umbrellas and they made the title and stuff like that out of umbrellas?

    • @qweritiop7266
      @qweritiop7266 6 лет назад +17

      1) It's called "mass games". google it, It's pretty neat
      2)Yes.
      3) I don't think it was sponsored, I think it was just "with support" from Honda.
      4) Damian said in BTS (can't remember which) that it was filmed in an abandoned parking lot.

    • @michaelbyrne8238
      @michaelbyrne8238 5 лет назад +18

      1. I would guess that they use a computer to draw the images as a grid where each i, j position is either on or off. It's complicated looking at it overall, but each person just has to know the sequence for their position. Off off on off off on off etc. Every person doing their own sequence gets you the desired image.

    • @CreativeB34ST
      @CreativeB34ST 4 года назад +6

      If I had to direct this I would too use a computer program to generate some sort of pixelated/color coded video. I'd then get a device for each person which would display an individualized track of OPEN/CLOSE sequences for each person. This way nobody would have to remember any timing, and just follow the devices instructions under the umbrella. If they can afford this many honda chairs, they should be able to afford that kind of tech as well. This would eliminate the cost of everyone practicing their choreo for months. People would just be playing "Umbrella Hero".

      +Ziggonat No CGI at all. One take, reguardless of how many takes it took, still one take. They used a program to show what it would look like but everything was executed by real people in real time. Only sped up so everything looked nicer in the video
