Director Dante Ariola of MJZ and VFX house Method Studios teamed on this spot which depicts the mayhem caused by a dog chasing a cat through a supermarket–at 500 frames per second, in reverse. The dog, cat and people were not able to be captured in one take so all the moving shots were obtained using repeated motion control set-ups.
