Sky will break new ground with a visually spectacular advertising campaign for the launch of Sky Q, the next generation home entertainment system. The campaign is the biggest and most ambitious in Sky’s 27 year history and will roll out in the UK and Ireland from 12 February 2016.

An arresting campaign, produced by creative agency Brothers and Sisters, will make use of futuristic 60-second spots. The ads illustrate how the family of advanced Sky Q products connect wirelessly to create an ecosystem that makes TV viewing seamless - known as Fluid Viewing. The result sees dramatic content like Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron exploding from one screen and embarking on an epic journey around the home in the form of droplets, before vividly splashing and reforming onto the next screen. The ads play out to the soulful, live soundtrack of “I’ve Gotta Be Me” by Sammy Davis Jr.
