Cool Christmas ad

We don't really get ads like this in the US - just cars with bows on top, but this is pretty cool, and the making of video is really neat as well.



Making of video

Silly bump as I just watched the vids and really liked the making of one.

I've wondered how "hand drawn" animation is done these days. We have all sorts of advances that can assist, even if something is still hand drawn.
