Beijing Olympics Opening - The Scroll

A video demonstrating the making of an ancient Chinese painting leads to this astonishingly beautiful performance: Dancers literally draw a picture on the giant scroll. The narration is in Chinese but they didn't do much anyway.

In case you are wondering, the moving background is a TV.

Thanks for deleting my comment. As I was saying, I really didn`t see them draw anything but the squigly line + circle, anyone care to enlighten me what else they drew? Because it seriously looked like it was already drawn as it was rolling from beggining to end.

Gotta love the people that will delete the comments of people that have been here 3 years.

I was just wondering, I thought I saw this part right after they lifted the rings. Shouldn`t this be place after Act 3?

Thank you for uploading these videos, I really enjoyed the opening ceremony and the closing ceremony was wonderful, except for the london part with the bus....didn`t seem to really put itself out there.
