Stickers were placed on footpath lights around central Auckland. At night when the lights were on, beams of light shone upwards, creating the Bat Signal.

1. the batman logo is wrong
2. it can't make the batman signal, cause the light should not be in one direction

good idea, bad execution

from guangzhou/canton china

Where have you been Dynatop? That ad is for Batman Begins - as in the new one with Christian Bale. I think you'll find that logo is exactly the same as the movie it is promoting. Still unconvinced? http://batmanbegins.warnerbros.com/images/onesheet.jpg

As for your comment about not making the signal... They've done the same as what they do in the movie - a spotlight with a black bat over the top of it... like this http://moviesmedia.ign.com/batman/image/article/593/593997/batman_bats...

great idea, beautifully executed

mr. dynatop, I think that "making" the batman logo at the clouds or in the roof of that light builging is NOT THE POINT!
all the information is not where the logo is made... is just there on the floor next to the ad

Don't get why everyone feels that this piece is so great, I mean this idea has been lying dormant ever since batman comics first came out, so this is basically an adaptation to the batman begins premier, it really can't be merited, it's not fresh, it's not an idea, it's just an adaptation...

iT-iS-i, like an upside down ! mark.
