The process

Film – the making of a surprising journey

We went through so many processes in the making of this project we could fill a whole website... 

Moodboards, sketches, wireframes, prototypes, scripts, storyboards you name it.

The film on the left is a nice overview of some of the many processes it took to complete the film.

The solution

An interactive installation allowing visitors to international motor shows to explore the features and benefits of the new Range Rover through an exciting and contextual narrative.

The installation existed in its own unique area, the floor of which was flooded with water to emphasise the theme of Capability and Refinement. Visitors accessed the area via a bridge and stood on a pontoon above the water facing a four metre wide LCD video wall. From the pontoon they were able to guide the experience through a touchscreen interface set on a pedestal in front of the video wall.

Key deliverables

  • Interactive installation
  • Film series

An interactive installation

Designed to allow visitors to be as inquisitive or as passive as they wished, the installation was part movie theatre, part interactive kiosk. In its simplest form, visitors could watch a 5-minute linear narrative about an exciting family journey. The story told how the car performed in real-life scenarios and effortlessly helped the family tackle all the obstacles the journey placed in their path.

At set points the system offers the opportunity to view the action again from a 'Different Perspective', allowing visitors to witness the car's capability through a multi-screen edit showing previously unseen angles and footage. At its most sophisticated the system also allows users to watch the story in a non-linear sequence and pause at any time and learn more about the features being showcased by the narrative. To date the installation has been shown at Paris, LA and Detroit motors shows.
