But the way they have gone to the trouble of having the unlit lights visible as well has always hinted that it might have been a real set up.Captain Disillusion made a video detailing a similar technique to this Christmas ident:

From this video alone, I presume they created and rendered a base "blocks" layer, rendered an animation of the base lights below it using the 3D software, and basically allowed the computer to do the rest. I don't think they took weeks, maybe even months to do this.
