Videocracy Blog

So, I saw this about a week ago… and since then a lot of my friends have been sending it to me, asking how they do it…

Its an ad for a Samsung phone with a built in HD camera, (That alone is impressive)… and at the end of the video, the guy using the camera makes the phone disappear… and they “claim” that there is no special editing… that it’s one continuous shot.

And the video was put on YouTube, and then the challenge is “How was this done”

I honestly can’t figure it out… it’s obvious that the guy filming is not the same guy you see in the mirror… my friend thinks it’s like the old Charlie Chaplain routine, where he was walking in front of a mirror, and a person dressed like him was mimicking his actions… so in essence he was playing with his shadow.

I don’t know, you be the judge…
