Yes, it took some balls to make this ad

Balls_1In case you haven’t seen it, here’s a link to the Sony “Balls” spot from Fallon in London. For my money, this ad’s high points are the music and the moment when the frogs leaps out of the drain pipe.

The frog is the worst part. The spot loses all spontaneity with the frog because unlike every other "real life" scenes in the commercial, the frog just screams a team of PA's shoving a frog up a drain pipe, a camera locked down and waiting for the frog to come out.

The frog comes across so staged.

Looks fake to me. The Crown Paint commercials were much better.
