Panasonic wants to increase its support for Neymar Jr., the Brazilian ace it has sponsored since 2010, so they made him a song, or rather a chant. The lyrics are chosen from messages of support collected from Neymar Jr. fans all over the world, and it's set to the sound of his feet hitting the ball. Dentsu Inc. Tokyo felt that some of the fans, and the Panasonic sponsor were in the same situation as Panasonic isn't an official Fifa sponsor so it won't be at the games. But we can all chant at our TV's!
The animation on the decks is a zoetrope, which reminded me of when I watched the Sony zoetrope shot in Turin, that became the motion like no other advert.
