Artists
Create Ron Paul As A 3-D Animation
Tuesday, March 18th, 2008


A group of grassroots artists have gotten
together and created a 60-second TV promo for Republican presidential
candidate Ron Paul. The spot--which looks like
any scene from a high-quality, modern video game--utilizes portions of
Ron Paul's past speeches, combined with high end computer animation and
moving graphics to create scenes where a 3-D Ron Paul emerges from
water, is surrounded by doves, is standing amongst money flying up into
the air, and even appearing next to the founding fathers of the
Constitution. It's impressive!!
Check out the
video:
The project was headed up by lead animator
Nathan Evans of Arcfx, and Chris
Rye - the winner of the Ron Paul CNN/YouTube ad
competition. It took 3 months to create the 60-second feature,
which Chris Rye's American Liberty Coalition PAC hopes to air in
Pennsylvania leading up to PA's April 22nd primary.
"Imagine
average people watching mainstream television," the creators write, "And
in between Pepsi and MasterCard commercials, the viewer gets 60 seconds
of Ron Paul's important message delivered in interesting and visually
stimulating computer graphics. Will you help us air The
High Tide in Pennsylvania?"
Republican candidate and
former Governor of Arkansas, Mike Huckabee, conceded defeat last week, leaving
only two presidential candidates left in the GOP primary race: and
the two remaining candidates couldn't be more different:
Congressman Ron Paul and Senator John
McCain.
Thanks, Indy!
