Story Productions sourced the location, provided the construction, local projection specialists, and documented the entire production as part of a coordinated activation in celebration of the Paramount+ series Halo, that also took place in Mexico DF, Sydney, and Toronto.
The client wanted an iconic backdrop to appear behind the projected hologram, in a vacant location, as the projection was not designed for public onsite viewing. The location also needed to be in a vast space, big enough to house the approximately 20-metre tall, 24-ton structure and to provide the minimum 30-metre distance required to project the hologram. Location scouting was done in Rio and São Paulo before the backdrop was finally decided: the iconic Ponte Estaiada in the heart of the new commercial district of São Paulo.
For this task, Story Productions sourced a team of experienced projectionists and engineers who managed to build up a beautiful truss structure on which the hologram was to come to life.
A complex architecture of lights, various powerful projectors, the beautiful hologram screen and images provided by Kaleida—with the Ponte Estaiada in the background—was able to create a jaw-dropping effect.
The final part of the project involved getting behind-the-scenes footage of the whole process from start to finish, with cameras, a drone and photography. Kaleida’s director conducted the state-of-the-art Story Productions team remotely from London, utilising our live streaming services to provide real-time images for the most magical of results. Last but not least, transferring the terabyte-worth of footage within 12 hours was possible thanks to the ultra-fast data transferring facilities at Story Productions headquarters.
The effort was tremendous, but the result was worth it.

"Working with Story productions was the perfect production experience - it's always difficult putting your creative in the hands of a third party, but Story's attention to detail from day one and commitment to our project was everything we could have asked for. They felt like an extension of our in house team - which is the best kind of working relationship"
Hanee // Director | Producer
