Thanks guys.
FYI it took about 6 weeks to do and a large part of that was building the forest. Moho slowed to a crawl with so many plants (It took about 4 sec to turn off each of the trees to speed things up!). Still, the clients were happy and that is what counts! I'm quite pleased with bits of it too. (That also counts too... eventually).
00mao00 - That's the trick! use as many techniques as you need to keep the audience guessing.
There is very little real animation in the spot. There couldn't ever be due to buget and time constraints. What I tried to do was to keep the design really strong and bold and put in lots of depth. Also try to keep very dynamic compositions. A few cool transitions helped too.
There is lots of the above because, well... that is my day job. But to be honest with time and patience you could all do something like that
Anyone have another link to watch this? When I click on any of the gallery thumbnails I just see a Flash MX logo. I click on it and install the latest Flash player and restart and it just keeps giving me the same thing, nothing but a Flash logo.
edit: I right-clicked on the flash movie and it says "About Flash Player 8"...but when I go to Macromedias site it only installs Flash Player 7,0...how do I get FP8?
