Okay Go Films A Video In One Take

I came across this story after watching some late night Carson Daily while editing some work (sound familiar?), and I thought our readers would appreciate it. If you aren't one of the 12 million people who have already seen this video, check it out below. For their latest video, This Too Shalll Pass, Okay Go decided to build a Rube Goldberg Machine and film it unfold in one take. Check out the videos below to see how they filmed the whole thing and the challenges that come with creating something this unique. I know this isn't directly DSLR related but I think if you are working towards creating larger productions in your own photoshoots, you can appreciate what the guys at Flying Box Productions have done to create such a viral video for a band that has created a career out of viral videos.
