Saw a documentary last night that in part covered the phenomenon of wizard

Looking into it today and I'm just overwhelmed by what a big movement this is
and all the music that's been produced. Much of it is very funny.

I have to admit living in Australia I'm unaware of the recent goings-on of the
Walmart Corporation. However, I found this hilarious in any case.

It's tilt shifted video and those are real people. Isn't the effect intensely
cool?
