Kanye West called Philips "Carousel" "hands down the best video of the year". So we feel that we can use one of the hip hop star's most flauntingly famous catchphrases, itself lifted from Will Ferrell's Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, when we say that the interactive spot's Film Grand Prix win at Cannes makes it "kind of a big deal". Before "Carousel" was laden with gold, however, Boards gave our readers two in-depth glimpses into its making.

Our first story, Stink's Adam Berg takes us behind Philips "Carousel", published in an April post on our Behind The Scenes Blog features an interview with the Stink Digital director in which he discusses the planning stages of the film, details the two-day shoot in Prague and shares plenty of on-set photos.

The second, Nobody Move, from the June/July issue of Boards features interviews with Berg, who discusses the film's frozen-in-time technique, Stink Digital producer Simon Eakhurst talks technical challenges, and Tribal DDB creative Chris Baylis discusses the project's educational website.

Revisit both stories for all the behind-the-scenes action, and a big congratulations goes out to Tribal DDB and Stink Digital on the win.
