Anyone know the song at 4:00? And why companies always block comments on youtube, even though the videos aren't controversial?

If someone makes a disparaging comment about one of the participating artists and then that artist or their agent complains, that's a big headache.

Like for example: The watercolor guy just really didn't even try, man!

Ah, so they're basically playing a game of Telestrations. That's awesome. Seems like some of the artists, or maybe all of them, intentionally put their own spins on what is actually on the illustration though.

Also, the 8th artist kind of reminds me of Austin Powers in how he looks.

What a fun art exercise and creative ad. My favorites were the Ryo Fuiji (4th), Masanori Morita (7th), and Yoshitake Yamane (2nd).


Worst was Fukahire (moe anime girls) and the first water color dude.
