TVC: Nokia N8
Filed under TVC, Tech, Youtube/Vimeo/Videos
This is the very first advertisement for the Nokia N8 (well, considering the fact that all before were just promo videos without story-flow). And I should say; it’s well done!
Also noticed that the guy’s reading news via something that definitely doesn’t look like the current Symbian browser. Any idea, anyone?
There’s another N8 advert from India too, but doesn’t showcase much on the phone. But you could watch it for Priyanka’s sake!
Note: This can be a bit too loud!

Optical Illusions!
Filed under Science, Youtube/Vimeo/Videos
I love optical illusions, and I’ve always been fascinated by the mechanics of vision, so sharing this video goes without saying.
Apparently, this technique of animation has been known for a long time, but it’s still pretty cool.
You might also want to check out on how it is all done.

Great video here from Audi tv celebrating again 30 years of quattro, Audi’s permanent all-wheel drive which still beats the rivals hands down.
Teaser Trailer: Endhiran
Filed under Entertainment, Trailers, Youtube/Vimeo/Videos
The most expensive Tamil film in history, Endhiran, finally gets a teaser trailer. Looks rather clumsy (the trailer, not movie), but not bad for a Tamil film nonetheless.
[Video removed] Will update once the official one goes online!
Note: This isn’t a legitimate teaser copy, it was ripped from the Audio Launch event!

Looney Tunes Returns, in 3D!
Filed under Entertainment, Trailers, Youtube/Vimeo/Videos
If you didn’t know of Warner Bros’ plans of reviving the infamous Looney Tunes toons in 3D, well, now you do!
In light of that, WB has released a new clip from the short film called “COYOTE FALLS” and features The Road Runner and of course Mr. Wile E. Coyote!
For those who grew up with these endearing characters, it is more of the same insane and at times impossibly violent entertainment. This time in 3D!

TVC: Audi R8 – ‘Beauty and the Beasts’
Filed under Automotive, TVC, Youtube/Vimeo/Videos
This is a nice one, but could be confusing for the most part.
The shoot is very beautiful, with the rough and tumble jalopies racing around to a Rockabilly soundtrack in a white studio-like warehouse. The cars are in stark contrast to their surroundings unlike a sleek R8 Spyder that comes on the scene as the soundtrack changes to something that might be going through your mind when you first view the mid-engined Audi. I particularly loved the tag line “Mirror, Signal, Outmanoeuvre”.

Teaser Trailer: Earthquake Movie ‘Aftershocks’ (Chinese)
Filed under Entertainment, Trailers, Youtube/Vimeo/Videos
Aftershocks, originally titled Tangshan Dadizheng in Chinese, is being directed by Beijing-born filmmaker Xiaogang Feng, of other Chinese films like The Dream Factory, Happy Funeral, A World Without Thieves and The Banquet previously. The film was released in China a few weeks back, but it does not have an international date yet.
Story: When a mother is informed by a rescue team that, since her 7-year old twins are buried under the debris close to each other, digging one out would result in the collapse of the wreckage on the other, she is forced to make the most difficult decision of her life. Based around the devastating Tangshan Earthquake of 1976.
A very likely candidate for China’s big disaster film in response to 2012, but since this is about an event that already happened, it’s very different and much more emotional.

I rarely post on car battle videos, unless they’re really nicely done and worth the time. This one by EVO, as it goes without saying, is definitely one which is nice.
