It’s not quite as mesmerizing as their earlier bouncing balls ad, but this new Sony Bravia ad with plasticine bunnies is really well-done:


According to Wikipedia, this ad only aired in Britain. The bouncy ball ad didn’t air here either, sadly. Instead, we get smug ads about battles of the sexes and such.

This wandered around the net a little bit last week or so… the claim is that they ripped off the artists kozyndan (specifically this image (linked from here)). It’s hard not to see the comparison.

I read somewhere (no citation, sorry—don’t remember where I saw it) that the artist claims he was contacted by the ad agency, sent them some of his art, and never heard back.

A bummer, if true.

I heard that, too. A bummer, indeed, if that’s the case.
