Moving A Pixel 

Short, simple video idea visualizing the size of a single pixel in different video resolutions, using a real-world studio and a miniature gold cube. Created by Lernert & Sander:

We were asked to make a film to show the beauty of 4K, the new digital golden standard with 4 times more pixels then HD.
We wanted to make the inversion of the Sony Bravia commercials, that tried to show all the pixels of their new HD camera’s, years ago, by throwing rubber balls from a hill in San francisco.
We thought: if this 4K resolution is so fantastic it should also be able to film just one pixel!

We created five films in which one physical golden pixel becomes exactly one digital pixel on screen. The screens come in five different sizes: 4K, 2K, HD, 720p and SD.

You can see the video in various video resolutions at the creator’s website here.
Thanks to the lovely v5mt for the heads up :)
