2Takeaways designed for fans
Rock in RioRio de Janeiro, 2024

The Brief

Universal Pictures wanted to build anticipation for Wicked right inside Rock in Rio, Brazil's biggest music festival, where more than 700,000 people would be competing for attention.

The Idea

We created a cinematic installation that let fans and festival goers step into the world of the film before its release, playing with the contrasting atmospheres of Glinda and Elphaba. I directed it from concept to execution, including the takeaways: a bubble blowing souvenir inspired by Glinda and a friendship bracelet for the bond between the two protagonists.

The Result

The activation generated strong awareness and PR buzz ahead of the release, and sent fans home with a piece of Oz.
