Man In The Bubble?

In previous posts we have examined the Sony "make.believe" marketing campaign, and a few of you have created videos analyzing the various advertisements.  Some have noticed items of interest in the below video - the rabbit, the apples, the ball that is similar to "Light Man's" ball, and the sword movement which was similar to what was seen in a leaked video of Blanket.  All of these can be deemed "coincidences" (one of the most frequently used words on this site I believe...:) ).


But a SeeingClues blog reader ("TWK") discovered something new about the above video that no one else has picked up on.   Near the end of the video is a series of bubbles which contain quickly mutating images.
An especially interesting image was caught at approximately the 2:26 (interesting time) mark of the video.
I captured a screen shot and there is an image in a bubble which resembles a reverse image of the Thriller album cover.  The image changes very quickly, so here is what I was able to capture:

Here is a closer look:

Trick of the eye?  Optical llusion?  Subliminal marketing?

But if the concept of the "man in the bubble" sounds far-fetched, consider this. In the Jackson's 1980 video for "Can You Feel It", the use of bubbles and images in the bubbles were part of the special effects.




Stopping the screen at the 4:51 mark shows this image:

Can you see it? :)

Connect The Dots, Part Two: make.believe

There has been some discussion regarding similiarities in Sony's "make.believe" commercials, and how they tie into Michael Jackson related projects such as "Moonwalker".
The print ads continue these similarities; most notably to the This Is It film.

This first ad shows a city scene that is very reminiscent to the Smooth Criminal backdrop in This Is It:

Then we have a similarity between the beginning of the "Earth Song" short and another "make.believe" ad. The beginning of Earth Song shows the sun rising above the Earth:


A Sony make.believe ad captures an almost identical image:


So to "connect the dots", perhaps we should look at the overall theme with Sony's new campaign in that the "dot" connects what you can imagine, to what is reality. When Sony announced that "make.believe" campaign, they released the following diagram:


So the dot connects ideas, and we have seen that as a recurring theme. From TMZ's articles referring to "connecting the dots", to the "FOOL" spelled out when "connecting the dots" in that News of The World article about Dr. Murray, to what may be the ultimate theme in this...

We as individuals are single small "dots" in the scope of humanity, but together, when connected for a higher purpose, can make dreams become reality:


Connect The Dots - It's all for L.O.V.E.
