    This is absolutely amazing. I wonder if they used cuts at all, there were some places that might have been used for cuts (like when the camera moves very fast to a new direction or the shaking right after the small ramp).
    In Children of Men, they used tricks like that to create some of those extra-long takes. But nevertheless, the choreography of music along with the notes on the floor and how perfectly it fits together is really impressive!

    And by "someone" you mean Activision.

    That's a promo video for Guitar Hero that was shot by a professional production team.

    Posted on that site as if it was by the individual posting it. I've never seen it before and therefore took it at face value... Nothing to suggest it's Activision either. Well, I still think it's cool - great promo and must have taken a while to do.

    Yeah, it's a viral video put together by Activision's marketing/advertising department.

    A lot of the biking is real, but they didn't shy away from CGI either. The LED lights on the bike handlebars that flash like buttons being pressed on the guitar controller -- not really there.
