An Explosion of Paint

Originally posted Oct 17, this update includes the must-watch video of the commercial.

The new Sony Bravia Adspot features an explosion of paint - and it’s real.  The Bravia Advert also has its own website which describes, “Our latest TV ad - featuring massive paint explosions - took 10 days and 250 people to film. Huge quantities of paint were needed to accomplish this, which had to be delivered in 1 tonne trucks and mixed on-site by 20 people.”  The cleaning took 5 days and 60 people.

Oh, and it wasn’t wasteful at all… ;)
