Making of Gary Numan DieHard commercial
Loading...
Uploaded by makemagazine on Aug 9, 2010
Syyn Labs, the folks who created the Rube Goldberg machine for OK Go's "This Too Shall Pass" video, recently did a commercial for DieHard featuring Gary Numan performing his classic song "Cars" on actual cars (their tuned horns), playing them like a piano, all powered by a single DieHard battery. We were intrigued and asked them to tell us how they did it. They sent us this behind the scenes video. The commercial is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4YsMVA8DoU. You can read an article about the making of the commercial and the tech they used here:

Some people don't understand that this is the making of the commercial and not the commercial itself....
