fascinating – a transmedia extension to explore Harry Potter’s early years. Warner Bros is involved and who knew that WB is behind a musical version of Roald Dahl’s Charlie And The Chocolate Factory? That production is currently at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, and directed by Sam Mendes. Smart smart, as either one will be touring production gold.
Produced by Ignition, the X-Men Days of Future Past viral campaign takes Don DeLillo’s Libra twist on history a step further into the X-Men universe, creating a new conspiracy theory linked to the upcoming movie, X-Men: Days of Future Past. Seems the campaign is fleshing out the eleven year gap between movies.
Clever start to a new transmedia campaign and, thinking back to the genius transmedia content built for Prometheus, I cannot wait to see Fassbender in this one (please more Fassbender virals!)
