Hilarious Commercial Shows Brilliant Horse Competing In A Balerina Dance

Four women communicate through dance and color in this short film. We were able to capture the unique, energetic, and creative culture that epitomises the OPI brand by using a trained Thoroughbred who could replicate the dancers’ moves with very little digital enhancement.”

“Today, nail color can convey feelings and emotions, expressing on the outside what the wearer is feeling on the inside,” said Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Executive VP and Artistic Director.

The ad’s star is, of course, the lovely horse known as Lady in Black. The horse, described as a thoroughbred, was trained by French equestrian stunt trainer Mario Luraschi. While some of the dressage movements are genuine, Lady in Black’s incredible movements are also the result of some very skilled Photoshoppers and 3-D animation.

Our talented team of animators worked to replicate realistic movements based on footage of the original horse after the 3-D model was painstakingly matched to that of the real horse.” Whether animated or not, this commercial goes far beyond a beauty advertisement. This is an absolute masterpiece!
