This has been asked before and some have insisted that the balls are 'real'.
I however would bet my house on them being CGI or at least filmed in a studio environment and added to the street scenes later.
Very clever and beautifully done no matter what.
If you go to the bravia website, you can not only view the advert, but also see making of films, showing the 1000s of balls running down the hill!

<PRE>thanks gary baldy. my boss just found a website all about it and they do wallpapers as well, yes very beautiful and very real. they used 250,000 buoncy balls for the ad and no cg at all im glad to hear.</PRE>
It is real but I want to know how they got one to go down the drainpipe and nock the frog out and got it on camera!

yes they are real

yep it is real and you'll be glad to know they blocked off all the drains in the road and then had 50 PAs scurrying around afterwards picking up all the balls from in the bushes!
Fab ad. and the music if you are interested is Jose Gonzalez "Heartbeats". Just thought I would let you know.
There goes my house!
In a way i'm really glad it isnt CGI and that good old fashioned hard graft and artistry were involved.
Glad i dont own our house aswell!
no the balls are not real. It is all computerised and if you watch carefully you can see the balls never really touch the ground
Go to the bravia website xk8ix and you will see the truth.
i doubted it myself but i have now seen the light! (or the balls to be exact!)
the advert is real i have a sony shop near to were i work and it shows the making of the video it is sooooo cooool they use thousands of balls and the camera crew wear body armour and helmets
