Sony ‘Paint’: The explosions of colour that covered a Glasgow estate
("behind the scenes" video at link)

In 2006, Sony set out to create "Paint", widely regarded as one of the most technically complex adverts ever made.

After searching across Europe, producers settled on a Glasgow housing estate as its backdrop, using pyrotechnics to fire 70,000 litres of paint over buildings to promote the Bravia television brand.

The estate was due for demolition and became a temporary home to the 250-strong crew of producers, technical staff and fireworks experts who worked on the advert.

The BBC has spoken to members of the production crew to find out how it was made.

That channel has other Bravia ads and how some of them were made.

I can't believe the work that goes into them... especially the one with the bunnies.

Thanks for posting it.
