Driving in Chairs - Neatorama

(YouTube Link)

This stop-motion animated video is a commercial for Nissan's efforts to build a zero emissions car. It shows people driving chairs around town, running errands and racing each other.

So are the magic chairs charged by elves?

If not, then there is no such thing as a zero-emission car.

It just moves the source of the emissions upstream.

I love stop-motion driving videos.

It's kind of funny to juxtapose this one encouraging low-pollution vehicles with one of my childhood favorites that was used to sell leaded gas!

@Vonskippy: Didn't you watch the commercial? It runs on oranges!

I thought the quantum oranges were the turn signals?

@Vonskippy: Well, if you can get your energy from a source that doesn't burn fossil fuels, then yes, there is a zero-emission car. (zero CO2 anyway..)

They've got this all wrong. He should have ridden that nice bike he just left sitting there. :P

I've read that doing this type of stop motion photography can take weeks to get a small clip like this, but the effect is very cool!
