Phase One: Celebrity Takedown is a compilation DVD by Gorillaz, released in November 2002 (see 2002 in music). The DVD compiles the videos and animatics related to the release of the band's first album, Gorillaz, as well as the related singles. The DVD came with an extra CD-ROM containing desktop wallpapers, screensavers and the like.
Limited edition copies came packaged in a hard box with a map of Kong Studios, exclusive sticker sheet and a 52-page reprint of the original promotional booklet released in limited quantities three years prior.
In some rooms, if you wait long enough, you are attacked and die. Dr. Wurzel appears in some of them, seemingly triggering the attacks. The DVD itself follows a small storyline. You are a police investigator sent to check out kong studios due to strange goings on. The studios look in a reasonably good state, which would change dramatically for phase two. The dvd followed a cartoon style mainly, although they had 3D elements to them.
