I'm not sure if you guys remember a commercial where a guy is flipping channels, but everytime he does he is right in the middle of whatever is happening on the screen. That is the inspiration of my idea.
I picture it as you see a guy come sit on the couch and pick up the contoller. The camera immediately swings around behind him so that you can see his Big Widescreen TV. As he starts to play the game and you can see his movement controlling the character on screen, the camera does one of the depth perception tricks that makes it look like he just merged into the onscreen action(kinda like zooming in on the screen, only the guy playing the game doesn't get smaller, he is now the active character in the game).
The guy is now wearing a Jersey and he pulls his arm back to throw the ball, does a little juke and then releases.
*The camera follows the ball as it arcs through the air revealing the guy playing the game actually recieving the pass, now wearing a different #'d jersey. As he does a spin move or stiff arm after catching the ball, the camera then does a reverse depth perception to reveal him excitedly controlling the action from the couch.
then comes a slightly modified EA slogan "
E...A...Sports, Get in the Game!"
followed by a Nintendo catch phrase being whispered loudly "
Wii Can Make It Happen!"
as a beautiful shot of the system and controller appears in the background, out of the same color liquid like the
promo video.
*This part can also be modified to promote online play too.
-The camera follows the ball as it arcs through the air revealing an opposing team member intercepting the ball just before the original guy is able to catch it. Just as this opposing team member does a juke move or a stiff arm to get away, the camera does a reverse depth percetion revealing some other guy on some other couch happily contolling the action with several other friends in the room cheering him on.
then comes a slightly modified EA slogan "
E...A...Sports, Get in the Game!"
followed by a Nintendo catch phrase being whispered loudly "
Wii Can Make It Happen!"
then show the Nintendo WiFi logo as a beautiful shot of the system appears in the background, out of the same color liquid like the
promo video.
