Brief Explanation

This ad tells the story of a young girl trying to send a message to the Man on the Moon, set to Oasis track ‘Half the World Away’ covered by Aurora. The campaign uses Augmented Reality to digitally enhance the story and includes a partnership with Age UK.

Execution

When you’re a child, your imagination feels real. The stories and the worlds you create in your mind really exist. We wanted this film to feel as real and as beautiful to our audience around the world as it would be to our little girl, Lily. That’s why we chose to make this film in live action instead of using animation.
