Microsoft, Warner Bros. UK Launch First Ad Campaign Featuring 3D Printing
I should be getting my 3D printer in the spring. I think I’ve found the firs thing I’ll be printing.
By working closely with Warner Bros. UK and its UK agencies, PHD and Think Jam, we’ve been able to co-create a digital advertising solution that is truly at the forefront of global innovation. By offering fans a blueprint for a 3D model of one of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug’s ‘key’ artefacts, as well as an interactive deep-dive into the film, information about characters, events and artefacts, actor bios, behind-the-scenes videos and more, we’re providing a genuinely valuable and unique experience that puts the consumer first – really benefitting the people it reaches – while continuing to deliver for the client and push the boundaries of what is creatively possible using new technology.
