Is this Ronaldinho for REAL??

[valioso]

those rebounds from the crossbar are very very fake... anyone that thinks is real needs to get examined.

 

[Vedran-10]

The part that makes it obvious that it is fake is at the very end where he kicks it, and it goes dark but you can hear the crossbar being hit again. I think that is the part that was meant to show its unrealism. If he was THAT good he would hit the target with every shot in a game.

You could be right, but my first reaction to the the crossbar sounding off for the fifth time was laughter. I mean, you're amazed by him hitting it four times, and the ones who arent amazed laugh because they think it's fake. And then at the end of it all he does it again. I don't know, but why would Nike "tell" us it's fake on purpose. It's not in their interest. The fact that the ball never leaves the screen is proof that they went thru some trouble making this and if you were right, then Nike would be pretty stupid for doing that only to ruin it at the end.

Oh and one more thing, I fail to see how this isn't physically possible, because it is. The question is whether or not someone has the SKILL to do it. It's obvious that it can be done, physically wise.

I see a lot of you must have failed physics class

Funny to hear that comment coming from a guy who must have failed english

But never the less, your point still stands. This was my favorite response

Of course it's 100% real. And it's all because of the boots.

When I get those boots I'll be able to do it for certain.

Heh

For those of you that, by page five, still believe this is real: he is an amazing footballer, but he cant manipulate the laws of the physical universe. This is done routinely on American television for powerade. LeBron James cant drain them from 120 feet like its noting. As Brain said, Ron Mexico cant toss a ball 150+ feet. But those commericals looked just as visually convincing.

thanks for the links.

Every time I go to nikefootball.com the only thing i can see is a boot and it said i should turn off the pop up blockers...I cant access any other pages...

 

[houston3721]

Thats a really fantastic video... great juggling and bar-hitting. I think thats fake but it just look so real and in the last minute you can still hear the bar being hit

Great ad

 

[syaz_wan03]

still...i do have a feeling this is real because it's not an advertisement from nike!
it's video showcase...!

and...for what reason they have to hire some superb gfx editor to make this showcase looks cool? it will only makes ronaldinho looks sucks.... :boohoo:


video showcase & advertisement have a really huge different.

is not an ad? wtf are you smoking? so you think Nike reps routinely show up at Barcelona training with a golden suitcase and new boots in them?

Lovejoy needs to get Barcelona on for the crossbar challenge.

Good thing you put it that mildly. I dont think I could have been as forgiving

 

[seedpp]

I saw Zidane and Maradona had managed to do the game like that at one time , neither of them can reach to point which Ronaldiniho showed on nike AD.


It must be made by file effect

 

[FFC2004]

Something about the way the camera zoomed out for the shots, and then zoomed in when he stopped leads me to think they were expecting it, which probably means editing...

no..don't get me wrong.

i mean... it's only a video where nike wants to show off their world class talent wearing their world class boots ...it's not an ad...do you guys know what's the difference of video showcase & ad ?

usually, if an advertisement, their main focus is to show what is so special on the boot itself not the players & another focus point of an ad is....GO AND BUY THIS SPECIAL BOOTS NOW!!!!

and for the video showcase, their main focus is 'only' to show 'what's happening arround' (damn...i dont know what is the exact word...)i mean...it's something to show ronaldinho is trying his special boots...(Sh!t... still don't get the exact word... hopes dat you guys understand on what the f**k i'm talking about)

in this so called advertisement...do u find any shots where they show .."..........Damn!! this boot is so cool... I wanna buy it know although it is f**king expensive..."

...dat's only my opinion...
(sorry for my english...)

you're hopeless. do you ever watch nike vs devil, nike cage tournament, ole? or perhaps the ads henry dribbling inside his house? those are tv ads. do you ever see they holding a nike product and said "come to get this baby, this is a good product"?

nowadays tv ads try to be creative and attractive so people will pay attention on it or else who will give a damn on the tv ads if the ad is so lame.

so, ask yourself. would you like to see a tv ads like ronaldinho do some tricks and juggling around the pitch or he just simply hold his new gold nike tiempo legend and tell you "yea, this is a good boot, i can hit the cross bar as many time as i like" and the tv ad end?

aah.. i think u need to study on how to make an ads..(i'm no expert in makin an ads )
look... they have many different shot in that ads (ole...henry ads..& etc.).... and did u see any other shot in ronaldinho vids...? i only see one camera come to that guy... then the camera backoff...and then zoom it back.. yeah... only one shot...i know...it's possible to make some special effects & whatsoever nowadays....but for what...? honestly i don't think dat there is any nike ads av used special effects before this.(correct me if i'm wrong..)


..and yeah.. why are u so 'angry' with me..?? dat's only my opinion...thanks for being care with my opinion...

first, one shot doesn't mean anything because there is something call film editing or montage. you can have one shot last for 1 or 2 hours. after that you can pick whatever frame you like and merge them together to make it 1 minutes. this is common in film making and editing.

second, yes. nike does use special effect in their tv ads. nike stick man ads which ronaldinho playing with a stick man are special effect. there are few example soccer ads using special effect such as adidas "nothing is impossible" ads where players playing on a steel made field frame.

third, i'm not angry on you but just feel you're funny to say this is not an ads by your unclear theory.

 

[syaz_wan03]

lets forget abt the shot coz i dunno how to say it in better words to clear up this thing..

lets look at the creativity aspect.
do u think this so called ad is creative enough...? exclude the magician skills.
compared to the other ads where they use cage field, brazil vs portugal atmosphere, henry tricks in his house.. (or in adidas... they use steel made field frame / jungle environment & etc...)...

most of them use some 'creative & funny thingy' , great camera angle & etc.

this video only show one shot of ronaldinho in training ground... and the camera angle is quite sucks ...

i am not impress if this is an ads... the camera angle is bad, the atmosphere looks dull... nothing to be 'wow' except ronnie skills.

guyz...welcome to the film-making class...

(are we already off the topic...?)

 

[Joe Star]

Get the guy in a field with a ball & i can bet you anything he aint gonna pull it off.

if this ads is not wow enough, do you think this thread going to have 6 pages long? talking about lame creativity, talk a look at adidas predator mania ads. seriously i think the ads was stupid

 

[syaz_wan03]

yeah... i don't wanna make this thread as long as possible..

seriously i think the ads was stupid

& dat's why it's called as a video showcase ...
