Projects
- World Premiere of the Project Natal Experience imagined by Cirque du SoleilObjective: Xbox was launching their new Kinect technology and needed an event to convey the experience of hands-free gaming to both press and consumers during the E3 convention. A VIP area and red carpet experience outside of the Cirque de Soleil performance needed to represent the new brand guidelines and be an area where VIPs felt comfortable to explore the new technology. Results: A one of a kind immersive experience was created to launch a ground breaking technology.
- World Record London for London & PartnersObjective: In an Olympic year, host cities can experience a reduction in tourist numbers. Ahead of the London 2012 Games in July, London and Partners - the official promotional agency of the capital - wanted a campaign to showcase the amazing, unique and varied experiences on offer in London. Results: Guinness World Records worked in partnership with London and Partners to create a programme of record-breaking live events which would generate global media coverage and consumer awareness. The diverse campaign successfully engaged partners, businesses, students and residents from across London. Over six-months World Record London achieved 21 new Guinness World Records and crowned over 16,000 new record holders which helped achieve £3.5 million in press coverage. Most importantly, tourism did not decline in the lead up to the games.
