(Asked by: username_0 on 2012-08-08)

We're looking to make an [iPad like commercial](http://www.apple.com/ipad/) video for one of our apps.

My Question is, what technologies are involved in making this kind of a video? Is it `flash`/`after effects`? or something else all together.

Also, if there is a tutorial which can help me build something like this video, it'd be helpful. cheers.
