Dancing iProducts: Apple's new Holiday Advert
Some stockings are luckier than others, Apple tells us. They've released a new Busby Berkeley-style Radio City Music Hall-inspired Holiday advertisement that showcases their line of Christmas-worthy gifts. Don't know about you, but I rather like it. Dancing iPods. Dancing laptops. Dancing LCD displays. No more "Silent Nights" once you get an iPod, indeed.

More warm and fuzzy from Apple. Beautiful! Great motion graphics too...

It feels like someone spent way to much time making an ad similar to Apple's current layout (red banners, holiday, etc).
And if Apple did make it, all I have to say is wtf...
Just my 2¢.
I'm fairly certain Apple did NOT put that music to that video.

Enjoy!
I love it too. I wish Apple would do something like this for television. It's refreshing to see something beside the iPods in an Apple commercial. I think combining the computers and iPods, as in this spot, would be a great advertisement.

"a gift they'll open every day"
haha
When is Apple going to dump the iMac and make something worth buying? I want a Mac mini or Mac Cube with a 3.5" hard drive and real video card dancing on ice thank you.

I'll bet it took about 20 minutes to create with Leopard's new Core Animation!
