PlayStation: advert-body-1 by BBH NY
- Location:
On February 10, during the NBA’s Warriors v Spurs game half-time, PlayStation and BBH NY took over the court at Oracle Arena in Oakland for a first-ever narrative projection mapping experience. It transformed the court of into a snowy landscape for an epic ‘War on the Floor.’
The event is all part of the promotions for the PS4 'God of War' campaign. The animated projection took over not only the floor, which served as the main action screen, but also the scoreboard and the digital scrolling board around the sides of the arena. The experience was seen by those at the game and thousands more through Facebook Live, as well as fans through ABC’s national broadcast.
Through projection mapping and pairing surrounding screens, Oracle Arena was visually converted into a snowy Nordic landscape, where fans watched as the game’s father and son duo, Kratos and Atreus, battled their way through harsh elements, monstrous enemies, and brutal landscape. The elaborate teaser gave fans a taste of the action that awaits them through God of War.
