Anonymous Content Director PES, via Cole & Weber United, created an amusing stop motion spot promoting the various games in the Washington State Lottery.

It’s Coming, It’s Here crafts an interesting story without any human characters; set in a vibrant world, the colorful :30 tracks the movement of armadas of giant red and yellow lottery balls as they roll across a countryside populated with iconic Washington State landmarks: the Seattle Space Needle, snow-capped mountains, a patchwork of rich agricultural land.

After journeying across the state – sirens blaring along with urgent marching music, as though war is afoot – the two groups line up across from one another in a verdant field. Instead of battling, however, the two groups mesh into one variegated jumble as a voiceover announces that Powerball and Mega Millions have come together at last in the Washington State Lottery.
