The Event

Opening Ceremony of the African Cup of Nation in Egypt. The AFCON is the 3rd biggest football competition around the world, gathering the best of African Football viewed by 300 millions pax.

In Football, the match is the heart and the ceremony is the soul of the competition. A football ceremony is always a challenge because it is right before the match, which by no matter what, cannot be delayed. Therefore time is of essence. For this AFCON 2019, we wanted to raise the bar and create a new standard and a ceremony people will talk about.
It was the 1st full 360 video mapping ever made for a football event.
We build and raised on the field 3 giants Pyramid (1 of 19 meter height, and 2 others of 9 meters) in less than 4 minutes on which we project contents on all faces.
We create a full Video content of 12 minutes that we project on all the scenic element (Pyramids, Carpet, Performers)
