Yawn…

As much as I hate the use of babies in advertising since it’s such a cheap blow to get “awwwwwwes” from people, that was pretty good and creative.

Oh and let me be the first post to remind everyone of the cliche “Evian is Naive spelled backwards.”

Hmmmmm… I thought that was one sweet piece of CG.

I knew it would come to this. It all started back in 1996….

Amazing talent and imagine it’s very difficult to train babies to do this. The last time I saw cuties skating in underwear was at a gay pride parade. Glad to see the trend taking hold.

That’s just disturbing.

#7 Dallas: I don’t think that babies were trained. The reason why this looks a little creepy is because these babies are not real. What I find interesting is that when they make fake grown-up people (video games, etc.), it is really obvious but it seems to be not so obvious with babies. Maybe it’s either because of the lack of complexity in a baby’s face or maybe our brains don’t have the level of facial recognition for babies that we have for adults.

#9 – “it is really obvious but it seems to be not so obvious with babies”

Actually, I believe how they got away with it here is that they used real baby heads superimposed on CGI bodies. I couldn’t really tell up until the very last shot when the baby raises his arm. That’s when the uncanny valley crossed over for me.

Up until that point, good job! Perhaps at some point we *could* cross that valley.

#9 These are highly trained babies. Look closely when they do a back flip from the fence how fearless they are.

# 12 JoaoPT said, on November 24th, 2009 at 10:00 am

Not again…

#11 Dallas – I agree. I’ve been trying to train my 10 month old but he’s “afraid of falling”. Boo-Hoo the little baby. How’s he ever gonna shred with that attitude. I’m thinking getting him started on some steroids.
Spoiler Alert: The skates kept falling off the little guys so they were held on with Super-Glue.

#7 What? No Obama bit?

#9 Jeanne. How can I tell you that Dullass is just trolling? I know you have good intentions, but he was just looking to see who fell for his stoopid post.

Sorry to see your good will lost in vane.

# 15 Dallas said, on November 25th, 2009 at 6:45 am

#13 Monster – recommend the baby for some sort of bootcamp before the steroids route. But you gotta do what you gotta do,

#14 Pedrito. That was cute with the ‘Dullass’ funny. Even though you bury and cook pigs in a ditch whee you’re from, I wish you a happy thanksgiving! Also, I do believe Obama provides babies inspiration to excel !

# 16 pedro said, on November 25th, 2009 at 7:05 am

#14 I never doubted for a second that you think Obama does that. I was only surprised you kept it to yourself.

And don’t worry, Obama has brought hope and turkeys for the less fortunate like myself. Hey! That’s something he did change; but not in America, were the buddy system is thriving with him. Maybe that’s why the babies are so happy in the video, more pork for their dads, which brings me full circle to my point as to why Obama brought turkeys here, just so he could take our pigs to give pork to his buddies.

Those gringo bastards taking everything from third world countries. They live good and leave us with nothing. Are you enjoying your turkey dinner in your big house? At least I’d know that the starving kids around here are not doing so in vane, like Jeanne’s god will.

Those bairns are defo CG. How do I know? During the close up at the end of the ad, the two bairns’ faces look exactly the same. I’m an Aspie with prosopagnosia and even I can see that detail. I think it’s the lack of diversity in the bairns’ faces that adds the creep factor.
