The babies could barely walk, let alone skate. They were placed in front of green screens and Ludo Fealy of the Motion Picture Company and his team in London did the rest, turning the baby-auditioners into roller-dancers.
"They would have rocked the baby gently backwards and forwards with that particular break dance move in mind," Fealy said.
Fealy and his team filmed a professional skater doing the moves, then programmed a computer-generated baby's body to replicate them. Then they added the heads of their baby models, attaching them to the dancing digital bodies. They put it all together over a park scene shot in Melbourne and made to look like Manhattan.
