Toyota USA's Terrible 2015 Sienna Navigation Video - General

incoming cringe [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0Uq59ryy3s[/media] Okay, so, I do a lot of animation and production work, and I am BAFFLED on how this got through the system to become part of a national campaign. Someone got paid to do this, somewhere Unless some kid somewhere won a contest to animate a video I don't understand

Thanks for making me not want your car, Elephant Automotive.

Jesus Christ

I legitimately thought this was some low production troll/YTP. It wasn't oh my god

It looks like a fucking go animate video

jastin fucking otter!! i love that guy. best snowboarder ever hes so cool.

This is stuff you only see as a parody commercial in another TV-show

It's four and a half minutes long, but just goes on and on and on and on and on.... ...and on and on.....

This is something you would see as a joke on Adult Swim or something. Its Tim & Eric tier.

this is fucking awful. the amount of animators here that could've used this work really makes me sad ffs they could've spent 5 minutes on tumblr and found a better artist and animator. this looks like the extreme satirical example of a company trying to sell their product through modern stylistic animation

no fucking way is this real

Its a good idea to keep a physical map just in case but in practice nobody really does. Modern GPS devices are pretty reliable as-is, just don't blindly follow its directions. They are suggestions, not orders.

It's crazy how terrible the animation is in contrast to the attention some some stupid details, like the reflection of the person in the clock and the window blinds casting correct shadows. arms constantly bend the wrongs ways, and ffs the dad's hair doesn't even fill in the outlines correctly and yes this is real

Toyota is really in the shitter if they can't even afford decent commercials

imagine being the person at toyota who bought this from the marketer and gave them money after reviewing it

This looks like something I'd see on Everything is Terrible.

The animation, the art style, the voice acting, jesus christ. [editline]11th March 2015[/editline] actually calling it an artstyle is an insult to artstyles

[quote]Oh god this intersection is so confusing~![/quote] READ THE FUCKING SIGNS YOU FUCKSTICK! You don't need a damn satnav to navigate that interchange, the signs that are plastered all over the road two miles away from the interchange told you what lane to be in to get on what side of each freeway you can get onto. If you follow the road signs you can navigate that thing just fine. [QUOTE=pentium;47302183]Also, that repeated trust of the GPS.

I use the satnav in my phone for long-distance nav, but I'll defer to road signs if I suspect it's being silly. As should everyone. Satnavs are nowhere near perfect.

[QUOTE=LordCrypto;47303436]google has been learning the road far better than you have[/QUOTE] Google apparently thinks there's a several hundred thousand square foot warehouse buried out in the cow pastures where I live. So do most of the other satnav companies. You really want me to believe that when blind trust of satnavs is sending 18 wheelers down roads barely wide enough for a 1-ton pickup truck? Yeah sorry no, your statement is full of shit. I see, and hear, and feel, the proof of why you shouldn't blindly follow your satnav every single fucking day. There's plenty of signs on the nearest off ramp to my house saying 'NO STARBUCKS DC AT THIS EXIT', yet that doesn't stop these idiots who blindly trust their satnav and go trundling down ridiculously tight, winding roads waking up a bunch of hermits and cattle farmers looking for a warehouse the size of a football stadium that's not even in the same county. No satnav is perfect. If you suspect it's trying to lead you somewhere fishy, or if you see signs saying the opposite to what it's saying, [i]follow the fucking signs[/i]. The locals know that area far better than the google car that trundled through once, far better than the satellites overhead that update the maps maybe once every few years. If they put up a sign saying X is somewhere else it's because X is actually somewhere else! They aren't putting those up just to troll motorists.

Those Johnny Johnny videos were better than this shitfest

That navigation system has too many steps for a driver to manage. Ford Sync, Siri, and Good Now all have it down to a 2-step process.
