Did anyone else see the advert for the re-release of the album during the Canadian Grand Prix on ITV yesterday?

I saw it on the official site, the animation was brilliant, jaw dropping. I wounder where it came from, Jeff's people or an indipendant company.

Looked like Jeff's people did it, either that or someone was very well tuned to his designs and such. Doesn't it say that the collectors edition contains a look at his new CG movie, this may be where they came from.

[glow=purple,2,300]I missed the ad, but watched it on EoTW - Brilliant stuff!!
H_C mentioned in another thread that the animation in the trailer was specially created purely for the trailer, and not from the movie. I think that Jeffs CGI team did create it though, as it does look good!.[/glow]

How cool is that! Now we won't have to trawl through hours of tv in the hope of catching it. Nice one Horsell!

Horsell.
Was it right that ITV showed it on the sunday, or was is a cock up by them. I didn't think the advertising was supposed to start until monday.

Just seen it! Nice ad and I loved the bit with the cylinder opening and of course the tripods. It was on just before Sex and the City and luckily I'd started recording on my dvd so I can watch it loads later.

That is terrific! The voiceover guy sounds like the same bloke who does the E4 adverts.

Mr Voice over guy is non other than Patrick Allen who was the voice to the 'Barrat Homes' adverts in the 80s and 90s. He also did the voice over to 'Frankie Goes To Hollywood' single Two Tribes.

Don't want to nit-pick but the ad is for the remastered collectors CD bumper pack thing, not the film. I'm sure ou knew that though...

Cheers H_C. I'll be making sure I watch the ads tonight with the kids, subtly repeating the bit about "ideal gift for fathers day"!
