Impressive BBC Radio 1 Advert
Very impressive use of some stop frame animation here, although i'm sure it's a little more sophisticated than that. How is this done??

hey i only saw it in a teeny tiny window, but i would guess that most of the people added in here are composited in afterwards from a green screen shoot. that would probably be the case with the shot above, and the impressive last wide shot with the traffic and thumpin buildings. the one in the restaurant with the people shifting positions is probably actually just shot with the people in a couple of different positions, and then they're just going through some frames with the beat.
thanks for this great site, its a gem - nice video for castlemusic, too!
i have an idea, lets not bother animating anything, lets just do it in the edit...... i feel sorry for editor who had to cut this! poor excuse for stop frame animation

none of this was done green screen. if you notice all of the shots, except for one, was locked off. they shot a blank plate for everything and then combined the two in post. so they just simply created mattes of the things they wanted to move and made the animation that way. this is too low budget for green screen and compositing. they could not afford to make that match. my guess for the moving shot is they simply locked off a camera on a vehicle and basically did the same thing as the other shots. kind of a low budget motion control.
