This is awesome! Who produced it? It appears to be claymation, with some special effects added in. Good point that Patrick makes though, why is it RWD? But aside from that technical error, fantastic commercial! Forgive my ignorance, but is Nadal a tennis player, football player, both, etc.? I’ve never heard of him…
As Boris said, Nadal is a very good tennis player. He’s the second best player in the world at the moment and Kia has signed promotional contract with him about two years ago. If you check some of the videos on Youtube, you’ll find him in some Kia commercials.
The video is no longer available. I checked Kia Buzz and apparently they’ve edited the video slightly, and a new one is posted. I think the only difference is that the mini Nadals grab his legs instead of him inserting his feet into their butts, to alleviate the “offensiveness” that could induce.
