Samsung Galaxy S8


For the launch of the Galaxy S8, Samsung wanted to show the wide open potential of a phone without edges. So we took the busiest place on earth and transformed it into the stage for one beautifully synchronized experience. We connected more than 40 digital billboards over 5 city blocks and 22 vertical stories to create a seamless ocean environment for a magical encounter between an animated whale and a diver.
