Director Adam Berg made the "time-slice" film technique famous in his Grand Prix-winning "Carousel" spot for Philips. The trick involves having the actors pretend to freeze—standing still on set—while the camera moves through frozen time in a single shot. The same technique was later used in a Huggies spot by JWT.
