Video of the Week #17

One of the greatest things about design is how some people get to use classic references in their work. This week's video has that classic touch, and uses the theme song from 1952 film, Singing in the Rain.

But not only uses the song, they also manage to turn the song into something new, yet, really enjoyable. Now add a dude breakdancing. Cool, huh? No, wait, now add cardboard boxes... breakdancing. Done. NOW it's cool. Thanks to Eric for the link.

Yes, the wolkswagen ad is a classic. Much more powerful than this one imo :p

Also, note that David Elsewhere is playing in the ad. Great dancing!

This remix by Mint Royale was used for a wolkswagen car advertising last year I think, a performance you can see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1q98m7qJ8g. But this video is great too.
