Nice clip but what puzzels me is if its stop motion why do they keep moving the damm camera in that jerky motion ? and well nice clip but bloody boring had to flick threw that one

I loved this vid. The technical foresight and planning to go into some of the sequences and transitions was amazing.

If the camera videoing the commercial was a bit more steady it would look awesome. But at times you can't really tell whats happening. Olympus should get help from the ad masters (Sony, Honda and Audi), their ads are flipping creative and the Audi ones are hilarious.

Absolutely amazing sequences...The time, energy and effort involved in doing this is quite remarkable and Olympus should be applauded for their efforts here!
