Hey, wait a minute.... Why's the perspective of the image always match the camera angle? (look at the thumbnail of the video. Best example of this)
Just when I thought I couldn't get more scared of lifts

Awww, so it's fake? Thats so lame...

This actually makes me want that product less. They tried to fuck me. I already got suspicious when they all IMMEDIATELY noticed the floor. I am not looking at the floor in an elevator.

[QUOTE=Killuah;38136092]This actually makes me want that product less. They tried to fuck me. I already got suspicious when they all IMMEDIATELY noticed the floor. I am not looking at the floor in an elevator.[/QUOTE] I'd be looking at the floor if it was looking different. I am sure the people filmed were using that elevator on a daily basis.
They are actors in case you didn't get it. The whole floor is a greenscreen.
I thought they'd just give the elevator a glass floor
They all get of at the 12th floor.
There actually is an elevator with a projected floor in the Ars Electronica Center, it's not very convincing at all.
It's a green screen floor, nothing to do with monitors at all. The best glimpse of this you see is just as the doors open when the first guy hits the button, and also 1:26

[QUOTE=Tetsmega;38139358]But you literally see them strap monitors to a grid and run them at the very beginning.[/QUOTE] yeah he's right there's a green reflection in the handhold
Just focus on shadows, especially around their feet. You don't even need the green reflection to tell it's greenscreen.
Soon: "We're advertizing the technology, not the product." Just like Nokia. [img]http://mobilenewspedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/7486_OIS-Nokia-The-Verge-660x350.png[/img]
Another reason why you should take the stairs.
[QUOTE=Tetsmega;38139358]But you literally see them strap monitors to a grid and run them at the very beginning.[/QUOTE] Yes, you do see that. But how does that stop someone from simply recording something being put together that's not going to be used later?
