To launch their new cookery competition programme, ‘Hungry for It’ the BBC utilised Digital Out of Home to drive awareness of the new show and create an interactive experience with audiences in a mall environment. Using our Malls Live Interactive screen, the campaign displayed the shows presenter Big Zuu, looking longingly at a burger. When someone looked directly at the screen within a 3-metre radius, this triggered the burger to become pixelated, teasing audiences that they wouldn’t be able to handle the flavour! The installation also featured eye-catching vinyl wrapping and audio from the presenter for a full immersive experience.

For example, sites in Manchester carried a static lighting of red colour that perfectly complemented its Old Trafford football stadium backdrop.
