It is nothing more than a promotion...

Never the less it's still an impressive film. & to be done on a mobile phone, just shows the quality of the camera on the Nokia N8.

Yes, I agree, it is impressive, but still doesn't change the fact that it is just a commercial.

Ok we know it's a commercial. Does knowing that diminish the fact that it's an impressive well thought out & implemented piece of art? I think that it is more than just a simple "promotion" as you are putting it. Like the author of this article says, it is indeed "breath-taking". It has substance, & I truly wanted to see how it was going to end. I can't say that for most commercials on TV these days!

And how it change my statement that it is promotion? It doesn't, because it is fact!

Laurynas, no one is arguing with you that it's NOT a commercial or promo. All I am saying is that it's MORE than just a simple promo. Also how do you know it's definitely a promo? This article never said definitively that it's a promo. This can very well be a short avant-garde film shot on a new or different medium. You just can't simply assume it's a promotion. If you want to get technical that is! We just don’t know, but I can rest assured that it’s definitely more that a promo, if indeed it is a promo from the get go.

I was looking from "technical" point of view and from this point it is commercial and nothing more. But, yes, as I already have said, I agree, it is preatty good looking commercial.

You don't know that at all, you are speculating. Facts are facts, speculation is definitely NOT fact. We BOTH don't know if this is a commercial at all. Sorry I can’t agree with you. I agree with facts NOT speculation.

Have you ever asked yourself such questions like a:
1.They could use professional cameras instead of using smartphones, but fore some reasons they have selected NOKIA N8. Why?
2. If NOKIA doesn't have any marketing considerations in this project, then why NOKIA is so active in it?
And there is answer for you:
With such projects NOKIA just want to get more attention and it's all not about goodwill, it is part of marketing.

I am sorry but that link you sent proves nothing. You don't know if that it's a commercial or not. We ALL don't know. You are now discrediting yourself with your speculation. So what if others have made promos for the Nokia N8, that doesn't mean that this stop motion film called Gulp is the same thing. So please tell me why someone can't use a Nokia N8 to make a short film? So if your favorite movie was filmed with an ARRI motion picture camera then it's not a film it's a promo for ARRI huh? See how your argument is broken? It just doesn't make any sense. Why do you insist this is a commercial? Were you there, did you help make this film? How can you be so absolutely sure this is a commercial?

This is not a comercial, ther is no reason for the N8 to be promoted over and over again. This is just to show the great things you can do with it. If this was the Nokia n9 then it would be a commercial.

"This is not a comercial, ther is no reason for the N8 to be promoted over and over again."
I didn't said that it is fo NOKIA N8!
It is just for NOKIA's brand!

But still this shouldn't even been called a commercial, this should be called a piece of art. I bet you if this was a samsung galaxy S2 you wouldn't be calling this a commercial.

I'm not a fan of any brand! So, I don't care it is Samsung, Apple, HTC or any other...

I have already seen all that but why would that even bother you. At least they are doing something to entertain the N8 users with this type of contest unlike other companies. The N* was released almost a year ago and we still hear news, contests and promotions about it. Isn't that good????????

Now you are offtopic, because our discussion was not about that.

You were the one that posted the link about the N8 PRODUCERS CONTEST, so therefore I had to point that out.

And since this piece of art is part of NOKIAS's marketing, this can and should be allso called commercial, promotion, advertisement...

How do you know Nokia even has anything to do with this film? Maybe they just wanted to use the N8 to be different! 3 Nokia N8's are way cheaper than a 100,000 dollar ARRI movie camera. Again you STILL don’t know if this is a commercial or not. Where is your proof?.

Citation:
"We’ve got some exclusive sneak peak clips from behind the scenes at the #NokiaGulp shoot, where Aardman Animations and Nokia are attempting to set a new world record with their huge film ‘Gulp’.
Last year we successfully broke the record for the world’s smallest animation, with ‘Dot’, again as part of a Nokia campaign, and this time round we’re going to the oppostie extreme!"

Also don't forget to visit "commercials and branded content" section on Aradman's web page, her you will find smallest animation, with ‘Dot’, again as part of a Nokia campaign!
It's proves everything to 100%!
So, stop being "blind" and arguing nonsense!
