OK Go Wins the Internet Again With Illusion-Filled, Single-Take Video
 |
That whole treadmill thing was cool, but this video for “The Writing’s on the Wall” is way better.
If you’ve ever laughed at the way a master magician fooled your eye with an illusion, this is going to make you happier than The Lego Movie on Blu-ray today. It took 50 takes to get it right, as it’s all – amazingly – one continuous shot.
Helps that the song’s not bad either.
